Buffalo Chicken Chowder |
| Posted: 08 Nov 2011 04:08 PM PST  With the weather cooling down, soup season is here and I have certainly been taking advantage of it! During the warmer summer days, making a hot soup is one of the last things that I want to do but that does not mean that I stopped dreaming up new ideas for soups to try and I now have quite the list. On the top of that list of soup ideas was a buffalo chicken chowder! The basic idea was to make a soup with all of the flavours of buffalo chicken wings, which I just cannot seem to get enough of. I started the recipe out with some chicken and then I built up the base with onions, celery, carrots and garlic where I used more celery and carrots that I usually do in a soup like this as they are often served with buffalo chicken wings. Of course we cannot forget the star of the show and that is the hot sauce that the buffalo chicken wings are covered in so I added a healthy hit of that hot sauce directly to the soup. Although I could have gone with a nice light soup I was craving something a little on the heartier side so I decided to make it in the style of a chowder where I used some flour along with some cream to thicken it and some potatoes to bulk it up. Buffalo chicken wings are often served with a creamy blue cheese dipping sauce so I finished the soup off by melting some blue cheese into it and serving it with some more crumbled on top.
