chicken - broccoli - potato chowder/soup by maggie
Comfort food is the best way to describe this bowl of yummy! Serve it with a nice crusty piece of garlic bread and maybe a glass of wine and you are set ! I used rotisserie chicken in this recipe. But you can use any cooked chicken. I would imagine that a smoked chicken would take this to a whole new level ! I like to buy rotisserie chicken once in a while as there are so many recipes that need a little bit of chicken ... rotisserie is already cooked, about the same price as an uncooked chicken and if you are like me you can take that 1 chicken and make about 4 meals from it.
