Provided by jads8627

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 strips bacon
1 large onion, chopped
3 large cloves garlic, chopped
3 pounds unpeeled russet or baking potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks
6 cups vegetable or chicken broth
Kosher salt
Black pepper, freshly ground
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup chives, chopped

Steps:

  • In a large pot, cook bacon over medium-low heat until crisp, about 3 minutes per side. Remove bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate, break into small pieces and set aside. Drain from the pot all but 2 tablespoons fat. Add onion and increase heat to medium. Cook until golden, about 12 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 more minute. Add potatoes and broth and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes. With an immersion blender, purée soup until chunky-smooth (or purée in batches in a food processor fitted with knife blade). Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve hot, in bowls, topped with bacon bits, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and chives.

EASY CREAMY, CHEESY POTATO SOUP W/ CRISP BACON



Easy Creamy, Cheesy Potato Soup W/ Crisp Bacon image

This soup is fabulous, and much easier than the more complicated, time-intensive potato soup that I sometimes make. It is easy to throw together on a weekday night, or for lunch. You can, of course, use real potatoes (2 cups potatoes, skinned and cut into cubes), but I find it is even easier, and just as delicious, to use canned, sliced potatoes. It is a filling, creamy, and hearty soup, one that can easily be served alone for a complete meal. Although shared with me by my sister-in law, it actually originally came from a Gooseberry Patch cookbook, and then has been adjusted by me. You will love this soup - as my husband says, "This soup is awesome!!!! "

Provided by Millereg

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h5m

Yield 80 fluid ounces, 7-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/4 lbs russet potatoes, peeled and diced into ½ inch squares
6 ounces unsalted butter
3/4 cup flour
1 (6 ounce) onions, chopped
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
7 cups water
1 bay leaf
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (more if desired)
1 1/2 tablespoons chicken bouillon powder
1 teaspoon Lawry's Seasoned Salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
2 cups whole milk
4 fluid ounces table cream
12 fluid ounces sour cream
crouton, if desired (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Cook the potatoes until they are tender; set aside.
  • Prepare roux: melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  • Gradually whisk in the flour until it is well combined.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring often, for about 3 to 5 minutes or until the mixture turns an almond colour and is very creamy; set aside.
  • To make the soup: in large kettle, sauté the onion in oil until it is soft.
  • Add the water, bay leaf, chives, chicken bouillon, seasoning salt, pepper and garlic powder; bring to a boil.
  • Whisk in the milk and table cream, then the prepared roux; cook, stirring frequently, until thickened.
  • Add the sour cream and potatoes.
  • Simmer until soup reaches 160°F.
  • Remove the bay leaf.
  • Remove from the heat and serve with croutons if desired.

Tips:

  • Use russet potatoes: These potatoes are best for soups because they have a high starch content, which helps to thicken the soup.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: Cook them until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked potatoes will make the soup gummy.
  • Use good quality chicken broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so make sure it is flavorful. You can use store-bought or homemade broth.
  • Add the sour cream and bacon at the end: This will prevent the sour cream from curdling and the bacon from getting tough.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or white wine for a bit of acidity.

Conclusion:

This creamy potato soup is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and satisfying soup that the whole family will enjoy.
