Directions

Prep 10 minCook 20 min
  1. 1

    Add one-third of the corn and three-quarters of the milk to a soup pot or Dutch oven. Bring just to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.

  2. 2

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped poblanos, onion, and water. Cover and microwave on high until the vegetables soften, about 4 minutes. Carefully uncover.

  3. 3

    Blend the remaining corn with the remaining milk until smooth. Stir the purée into the pot along with the chile-onion mixture and salt.

  4. 4

    Simmer over medium heat, stirring, until hot and slightly thickened, about 6 minutes. Ladle into bowls and top each serving with cheddar cheese.
