Ingredients
  

1 lb ground beef

1 cup diced ham

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 large potatoes, diced

1 cup frozen corn

4 cups chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until they are softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

    Add the ground beef to the pot, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.

      Stir in the diced ham and smoked paprika, mixing well to combine with the beef. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

        Add the diced potatoes to the pot, then pour in the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat, and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.

          Once the potatoes are cooked, stir in the frozen corn and heavy cream. Allow the chowder to heat through on low heat for another 5 minutes.

            Season with salt and pepper to taste. If you prefer a thicker chowder, you can use a potato masher to mash some of the potatoes and corn.

              Serve the chowder hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color.
