Southwest Crab & Corn Chowder

This is a Cooking Light recipe, and is sooo good! Trader Joes has a 1 lb can of clawmeat crab for about $8. Why use imitation at that price?!

ingredients

2 Tbsp butter
1 cup chopped green onions
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped serrano chile (about 1 small)
1 (4.5-ounce) can chopped green chiles, undrained
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups 2% reduced-fat milk
1 1/2 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 cups frozen Southern-style hash brown potatoes, diced, thawed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 (15.25-ounce) can whole-kernel corn with red and green peppers, drained
1 pound crab meat
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

directions

Melt butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onions, bell pepper, and serrano chile to pan; sauté 2 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Add canned chiles to pan; cook 1 minute. Add flour to pan; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in milk and next 6 ingredients (through crab); bring to a boil. Cook 5 minutes or until slightly thick. Remove from heat; stir in cilantro.
