🥓 Creamy Bacon Soup Recipe
🍲 Ingredients:
-
6–8 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped
-
1 medium onion, finely chopped
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
2 tablespoons flour (for thickening)
-
3 cups chicken broth
-
1½ cups milk (or half-and-half for creamier version)
-
1 cup potatoes, peeled and diced (optional, for a heartier soup)
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
½ teaspoon smoked paprika (optional, but delicious)
-
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for cheesy version)
-
Chopped chives or green onions for garnish
🔥 Instructions:
1. Cook the bacon:
-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy.
-
Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel. Leave about 1–2 tablespoons of the bacon fat in the pot.
2. Sauté aromatics:
-
Add onions to the bacon fat and cook until soft and translucent (about 4–5 mins).
-
Add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
3. Make the roux:
-
Sprinkle in the flour and stir constantly for 1–2 minutes until lightly golden.
-
Slowly whisk in the chicken broth to avoid lumps.
4. Simmer & add goodness:
-
Add milk and diced potatoes (if using). Bring to a simmer and cook until potatoes are tender (about 15–20 minutes).
-
Stir in smoked paprika and season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Finish & serve:
-
Stir in cheese (if using) until melted and smooth.
-
Add most of the crispy bacon back into the soup, saving some for garnish.
-
Serve hot with chives/green onions and extra bacon on top. Maybe even some crusty bread? 👌
🔁 Variations:
-
Cheesy Bacon Corn Soup: Add 1 cup of sweet corn kernels.
-
Bacon & Beer Soup: Replace ½ cup of broth with your favorite lager or ale.
-
Low-carb version: Skip the potatoes and flour; use heavy cream for richness.
Let me know if you want a keto version, a slow cooker version, or even a “Bendy and the Ink Machine” bacon soup recreation (yes, that’s a thing 😄).
