Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat broiler

2. Place poblano chile on a foil-lined baking sheet. Broil 8 minutes on each side or until blackened. Place pepper in a small zip-top plastic bag; seal. Let stand 10 minutes. Peel and chop.

3. Melt butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion and next 3 ingredients (through red pepper) to pan; saute 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add corn; saute 2 minutes. Remove 3/4 cup corn mixture from pan. Combine 3/4 cup corn mixture and 3/4 cup cream in a blender; process until smooth. Add potato chunks to pan; saute 1 minute. Stir in 2 cups water, bring to boil. Cook 4 minutes or until potato is almost tender. Reduce heat to medium.

4. Combine remaining cream and flour in a small bowl, stirring until smooth. Add flour mixture to pan. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Return corn puree to pan. Stir in poblano, milk, and crab; bring to a simmer. Cook 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Serve immediately.
