I make this dish at least once a month. More so when it is a cold raining day. It is a family favorite. This is part 2 of my Chowder Recipes. This could also be made in the crock pot. Just add in all the vegetable & broth & set on high. Then about 2 hrs into cooking make the chicken, bacon & onion mix on the stove. Then add to the crock pot and let go for another 3-4 hrs.
