Admittedly, this soup does require some tweaking. I amped up the bacon (2 strips double smoked bacon per serving, substituted the onion with 4 shallots, added a glove of garlic, included the jalapeno seeds (my pepper was really weak, a few hits of cayenne pepper, and I followed suggestion here and made a roux to thicken it up. I used a hand-held blender and just whipped the soup up right in the pot. I added some broth first, 3/4 of the veg, then more broth. The milk and chicken got thrown in at the end, along with the unblended veg. Had some Greek yogurt in the fridge so I added a dollop of that, then the crumbled bacon, then the cilantro. I thought the lime would be a waste of time too, but it really brightens up the dish with that extra kiss of acidity. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!

My husband and I liked this soup very much. With a side salad, it's a meal. However, I did change a couple things. I used double the bacon and didn't remove the drippings (flavor. Also, I added the broth to cooked veggies, so it would puree easier. Added more chicken then called for too. I didn't think the soup was spicey at all, so next time I'll leave some of the seeds and ribbing on the jalapeno, since that's where all the heat is.

It is a wonderful recipe, but I agree that the potatoes need longer cooking time, AND you can use skim milk.
Substitute WILD SALMON (uncooked chunks instead of chicken, and jalapeno peppers (diced for more of a kick. The salmon can be added at the end since it cooks so quickly.
Toss the salmon with some lemon pepper before adding to the soup.
I also believe soups taste better the next day, allowing everything to marinate longer.
Great fall and winter soup with some nice crusty bread...YUM~

This is a good recipe. My biggest issue with Food Network recipes is they aren't very figure friendly. I made a delicous slenderized version of a spicy chicken corn chowder which I posted on my blog. ellebeaugrease blogspot com

I had to cook it a little longer because the potatoes took longer than ten minutes to cook, but outside of that, it was delicious!

This was very good. I will try it with chipotle peppers instead next time because I like the smokey flavor. For my Christmas lunch, I'm going to try to double the recipe and see how it turns out.

This soup was easy and DELICIOUS! My only complaint is that after sauteeing the veggies according to the directions the potatoes weren't nearly cooked enough, and 5 minutes of simmering after blending 1/2 of the mixture didn't do the job either. I added a pinch of cayenne pepper and this soup was so good!

This was an excellent soup! Quick and easy. I used a tablespoon of chopped chipotle peppers in place of the jalape?o pepper. I also used cream in place of milk which made it even better. I had leftover chicken from last weeks grilling that I stored in the freezer until I had a good use for it. This was a very good use! I would recommend this recipe with the and cream twist. I think it added the smokey and richness the recipe needed. I'll post a pic and more details on my blog, grill52.blogspot.com.
