Instructions

1. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
2. Add the onion, carrot, celery, and garlic and saute in butter until the vegetables begin to soften, about 4 minutes.
3. Sprinkle the flour into the pan and continue to stir for 2 minutes just enough to brown the flour.
4. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
5. Gradually whisk in the stock, then the milk.
6. Stir in the potatoes and bring the soup to a boil.
7. Reduce the heat and simmer the soup until the potato mashes easy with a fork, about 20 to 30 minutes.
8. Meanwhile add 1 tablespoon of butter to a no stick skillet on med-high heat.
9. When melted add in chopped chicken breast and saute until browned and no longer pink.
10. Drain off well and set aside.
11. Remove the soup mixture from heat and using a slotted spoon remove approximately 1/4 of the potatoes to a blender canister and pulse several times and return to soup mixture.
12. Stir in chicken and corn and return to heat for approximately 10 minutes or until at a rapid boil.
13. Stir constantly during this period.
14. Serve in individual bowls and garnish with your favorite toppings.
