CHORIZO CORN CHOWDER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to broil. Move the top oven rack to about 6 inches from the broiler.

You want the chiles to be soft and blackened all over when you remove them from the oven. Transfer the roasted chiles to a dish with a lid (or a dish that can be tightly covered with foil). Cover and let rest for 10-15 minutes. The blackened portions should peel right off after resting. Peel and seed the chiles and chop into 1/4" - 1/2" pieces.

Taste the broth and add salt and pepper, to taste.
