Taste of HomeTuesday: Quick Potato Corn Chowder

I needed a quick meal one evening and loved how fast and easy this was.  I halved the recipe for just Justin and I.  I'm guessing one could freeze the leftovers for a week or so and it would still be good.  I'm sure we will be enjoying it several more times this fall and winter.

Ingredients
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) chicken broth
3 large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 can (15-1/4 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
1 cup 2% milk, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
Minced fresh parsley, optional

Directions
In a large saucepan, cook and stir onion in oil over medium heat until tender. Add broth and potatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
Stir in the corn, 1/2 cup milk, salt and pepper. In a small bowl, whisk flour and remaining milk until smooth. Stir into soup; return to a boil. Cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until thickened. Sprinkle with parsley if desired. Yield: 8 servings (2 quarts).
