What is a good recipe for corn chowder?

Ingredients:

- 2 tablespoons butter

- 1 onion, chopped

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

- 1 teaspoon dried thyme

- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

- 4 cups chicken broth

- 2 cups frozen corn kernels

- 1 cup heavy cream

- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

- Chopped fresh parsley, for serving (optional)

Instructions:

1. In a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.

2. Sprinkle in the flour, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is golden brown, about 2 minutes.

3. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth until smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, or until the broth has thickened.

4. Add the corn kernels and heavy cream. Stir until combined. Bring to a simmer again and cook for 5 minutes more, or until the corn is heated through.

5. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.

6. Ladle the corn chowder into bowls. Garnish with parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.
