Let's Get Started
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.

- Add the diced potatoes and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through.
- Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, blend about half of the soup until smooth. This will help thicken the chowder.

- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
