In a large Dutch oven or soup pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, celery, and carrots. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir well, cooking for 2 minutes to create a roux.
Slowly whisk in the chicken stock, ensuring there are no lumps from the roux.
Stir in the milk, diced potatoes, and shredded chicken breast.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender.
Add the frozen corn kernels and heavy cream, stirring to combine.
Season the chowder with salt, ground black pepper, and smoked paprika. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Ladle the Chicken Corn Chowder into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
