In a large stock pot, fry bacon pieces until crisp. Remove from pan, leaving drippings, and set aside.
Wash, peel and chop potatoes into bite-sized chunks. Slice scallions very thinly and separate the greens from the whites.
Place potatoes and white scallion pieces into the stock pot and cook over medium heat until scallions have softened, 2 or 3 minutes.
Sprinkle in flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute.
Pour in milk, stock, Old Bay, thyme, parsley, cayenne, salt, and pepper, stirring well. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Reduce heat to low and simmer for 12-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Add corn (If using fresh corn, cut from the cob with a sharp knife. Use the back of your knife to press and release the pulp from the cob), chicken, and green chiles. Cook over low heat until heated through, about 5 minutes.
Garnish with scallion greens, bacon, and cheddar cheese.
