Chicken Corn Soup

[linsleyd]

Does anyone have a really good recipe for Chicken Corn Soup/Chowder?

I have a ton of sweet corn frozen and a friend that just gave birth and a friend that is doing the single mother thing for a few months and I wanted to give them some and freeze some for us for the winter.

When I have made it before, I've just thrown things in a pot and while that's good I would like something that is better!:)

TIA!
