Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat.
Add the oil and sauté the onion and garlic until golden, about 2 minutes.
Place the milk, flour, mustard and seasonings in a small bowl and mix well.
Add the milk mixture to the skillet followed by the corn; mix well until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens, about 3 minutes.
Stir frequently to keep the mixture from burning.
Divide chowder into four serving bowls and top each with 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese.
Serve immediately.

Efficient Prep: To streamline the cooking process, chop the onions and garlic beforehand, so they're ready to go when you start cooking. This ensures a smooth and quick sautéing process, allowing you to get the chowder on the table in just 10 minutes.
Thicken with Flour Mixture: Mixing the flour with the milk, mustard, and seasonings before adding them to the skillet helps prevent lumps and ensures even thickening of the chowder. Stirring continuously as you add the mixture to the skillet helps to incorporate it smoothly and quickly, resulting in a creamy and well-seasoned chowder.
Mindful Heat Control: Keep an eye on the skillet's heat while cooking the chowder to prevent it from burning. Stir frequently to distribute the heat evenly and prevent any sticking or scorching. Adjust the heat as needed to maintain a gentle boil and ensure the chowder thickens properly without burning.
