Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon olive oil

8 ounces andouille sausage, diced

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 medium potatoes, diced

4 cups corn kernels (fresh or frozen)

4 cups chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)

Salt and black pepper to taste

¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced andouille sausage and cook until browned and slightly crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

      Stir in the diced potatoes, corn kernels, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.

        Pour in the chicken broth, ensuring all the vegetables are submerged. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

          Once the potatoes are cooked, stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Let the chowder simmer for an additional 5 minutes to thicken slightly.

            Remove the pot from heat and serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges on the side for an extra zing.
