What's more soothing than a piping hot bowl of chowder? We trade in the classic seafood version for a hearty soup packed with briny artichokes, tender spinach, and shredded chicken. Cream cheese and Parmesan create silky texture, and a toasted ciabatta roll is perfect for soaking up every last drop.

Serves: 2

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 yellow onion
  • 1 lemon
  • ¾ oz of Parmesan
  • 14 oz of can artichokes
  • 2 chicken broth concentrate
  • 2 (1 oz) cream cheese
  • ½ pkg ready to heat chicken
  • 3 oz of baby spinach
  • ¼ oz of fresh chives
  • 1 ciabatta roll
  • olive oil
  • ¼ c all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup milk (optional)
  • kosher salt & ground pepper

Instructions:

  1. Finely chop onion. Finely grate all of the lemon zest and squeeze 1 tablespoon lemon juice, keeping separate. Cut remaining lemon into wedges. Finely grate Parmesan. Drain artichokes. In a medium pot, heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Add onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened and translucent, 6-8 minutes.
  2. Stir in ¼ cup flour; cook, stirring often, for 1 minute. Gradually add 3 cups water, whisking constantly to prevent lumps (alternatively, for a richer chowder, use 2 cups water and 1 cup milk). Add lemon zest and all of the broth concentrate and cream cheese. Bring to a boil over high heat, whisking, until cream cheese dissolves and soup is slightly thickened.
  3. Stir spinach and artichokes into chowder. Lower heat to medium-low; simmer for 5 minutes. Pat chicken dry; break into bite-sized pieces. Stir chicken into soup and simmer until chicken is warmed through, another 2-3 minutes. Stir in Parmesan and lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. Turn oven to broil with a rack in the top position. Drizzle cut sides of bread with oil. Broil cut side up on top rack until golden-brown and toasted, 2-3 minutes (watch carefully as broilers vary). Thinly slice chives. Divide chowder between bowls. Sprinkle with chives and a drizzle of oil, if desired. Serve with toasted bread and lemon wedges. Enjoy!
