Flavored with crab, shrimp and cheddar cheese, this chowder is so good that I make it weekly. Sometimes I substitute chicken or ham for the seafood and leave out the juice. Either way, this pretty soup is a winner. —Ami Paton Waconia, Minnesota

1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) chicken broth
