Yield: 5 3/4 cups plus topper

Servings: 4

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 medium white onion, chopped (1 cup)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 5 cups fresh corn kernels (cut from 10 ears), cobs halved and reserved
  • 4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • One 7-ounce carton plain whole milk Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup panko
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped dill weed
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

 

Directions:

  1. For soup: In a 4- to 5-qt. pot melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook and stir 3 to 4 minutes or until softened. Add 4 cups corn kernels; cook 1 minute. Add reserved cobs and the chicken broth. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, 25 minutes.
