Number Of Ingredients 19

2 Tbsp butter
1/2 c chopped yellow onion
1/2 c chopped celery
1 tsp minced garlic - more or less to taste
3 c chopped cabbage
1/4 c finely diced carrot
1 large russet potato - cubed
1/2 tsp dill weed
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper - or more to taste
3 c vegetable or chicken broth
3 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp cold water
2 c milk - more if needed
1 c whole kernal corn - canned or frozen
1/2 c shredded pepper jack cheese
salt and pepper to taste
shredded cheddar cheese for garnish
bacon bits for garnish
snipped chives for garnish

Steps:

1. In dutch oven melt butter then add the onion and celery and saute until tender. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
2. Add cabbage, carrot, potato, dill weed, cayenne pepper, cubed potato and broth. Bring to a boil then drop heat down to simmer and cook until the cabbage is tender.
3. In small bowl whisk the cornstarch and cold water together to make a slurry. Add to the hot soup, stir and simmer until thickened.
4. Add the milk and stir to blend. Simmer until thickened. If the chowder is a bit too thick add more milk until you reach desired consistency. Sprinkle in the pepper jack cheese and the corn. Simmer - stirring frequently - until the cheese has melted and the chowder is warmed through. Salt and pepper to taste then serve with preferred garnishes.
