Notes
- This Hatch Green Chile Corn chowder Recipe is perfect with blackened shrimp. Plus, it isn't too thick, making it a lighter chowder. It can be whatever spice level you like and is full of flavor. I used Hot Pure Green Chile Roast, but if you prefer a milder spice, there are certainly levels to meet anyone's comfort.
- Spoon the Hatch Green Chile Corn Chowder into the bowls, place a generous amount of shrimp in the center of the bowl, and garnish with two Lime wedges.
- Tell your family or guests to squeeze the lime juice over their bowl and stir the shrimp to incorporate all the flavors. Making a meal look gorgeous while being interactive adds to the experience, sometimes becoming a family tradition!
