I developed this recipe after having something similar at a Mexican restaurant. I loved the fresh taste of the lime and cilantro mixed with the sweetness of the corn.

CILANTRO-LIME CORN CHOWDER

About 5 large potatoes, cubed (more if you like it thicker)
2 quarts chicken stock OR equivalent water & soup base
small onion, diced
1 C. celery, diced
1/4 tsp pepper

Cook vegetables in broth until tender. Blend up part of the solids with an immersion blender (stick blender) to thiicken the soup.

Add:
1 pkg (13) frozen sweet corn
2 tsp. lime juice
splash of milk or cream(optional)
bunch of fresh cilantro, chopped (stir half in, use rest on top of soup as garnish)
correct the salt

Bring up to a simmer and serve.
