Potato Chowder With Green Chiles
Trying to find a potato soup recipe which is similar to the New Mecca Cafe. This is from Southern Living Magazine. Leave out the bacon, red bell pepper, and jalepeno pepper. See if that comes close.

POTATO CHOWDER WITH GREEN CHILES
BROIL bell pepper and chile peppers on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet 5 inches from heat about 5 minutes on each side or until peppers look blistered.
PLACE peppers in a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag; seal and let stand 10 minutes to loosen skins. Peel peppers; remove and discard seeds. Coarsely chop peppers.
BRING chopped roasted peppers, chicken broth, and next 5 ingredients to a boil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until potato is tender.
MELT butter in a heavy saucepan over low heat; whisk in flour and next 3 ingredients until smooth. Cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Gradually whisk in half-and-half.
STIR white sauce and milk into chicken broth mixture; cook over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Sprinkle each serving evenly with cheese, bacon, and green onions. Yield: 9 cups.
Prep: 30 min., Cook: 45 min.
