Fresh corn and poblanos from the farmer’s market inspired me to make this chowder, which satisfies every taste bud, especially when you add lime at the end! The poblano peppers are considered a mild green chile, although occasionally you may get a hot one in the bunch. Any Mexican mild green chile will work in this soup. I like adding color with sweet red bell peppers too!
