Time 2h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 ½ pounds russet potatoes
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper, plus more to taste
1 onion, diced
1 cup diced carrots
2 stalks celery, diced
6 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups milk
1 cup chicken stock
1 cup bite-size broccoli florets
½ cup bacon bits, divided
2 green onions, chopped
5 ounces shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Prick potatoes with a fork and wrap each potato in aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Cool potatoes until easily handled; scoop insides from skins and discard skins.
  • Place chicken in a bowl and add enough olive oil to coat; add 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss to coat.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir chicken until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Toss onion, carrots, and celery with enough olive oil to coat in a bowl.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-low heat; cook and stir onion mixture until tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-heat. Stir flour into melted butter and cook until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour milk, about 1/4 cup at a time, into butter-flour mixture; cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes.
  • Stir cooked potato, chicken, onion mixture, chicken stock, broccoli, 1/2 of the bacon bits, 1/2 of the green onions, and 4 ounces of the Cheddar cheese into the sauce. Cook soup until heated through and broccoli is tender, about 10 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Stir sour cream into soup and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
  • Ladle soup into serving bowls and top with remaining bacon, green onions, and Cheddar cheese.

This soup was a disaster. The potatoes never softened and the broth was watery. I won't be making this again.

This soup is a little bland for my taste. I usually add some extra salt and pepper to taste.

I'm not a fan of celery, so I usually leave it out of this soup. It's still delicious without it.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I usually have some leftover chicken from a roasted chicken dinner, and this soup is the perfect way to use it up.

I love the creamy texture of this soup. I usually use heavy cream, but you can also use milk or half-and-half.

This soup is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste. I like to add a little bit of spice with some cayenne pepper.

I've made this soup several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I usually serve it with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

This soup is perfect for a cold winter day. It's warm and comforting, and it fills you up without being too heavy.

I love how easy this soup is to make. I just threw everything in my slow cooker and let it cook all day. When I came home from work, dinner was ready!

I'm not a huge fan of potato soup, but this recipe changed my mind. It's creamy and flavorful, and the chicken and vegetables add a nice touch. I'll definitely be making this again.

This soup is delicious! The chicken and potatoes are tender and the broth is flavorful. I especially like the addition of the corn and peas.

I love this soup! It's so easy to make and it always turns out perfect. I usually add a little extra cheese and bacon because, well, who doesn't love cheese and bacon?

This soup is comfort food at its finest! It's creamy, hearty, and packed with flavor. I made it for my family last night and they loved it. Even my picky eater son asked for seconds.
