There is something so soothing about a warm bowl of soup, especially when it is full of summer corn. This dish brings together tender chicken, fluffy rice, and a sweet broth that feels like a big hug in a bowl.

My family loves how the charred corn adds a little bit of sweetness to every bite. I like to make sure my chicken gets a nice golden sear in the pan before adding it to the broth to get the best flavor possible.
