Categories     Pork

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 medium russet potatoes (about 1/2 pound each)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium leeks, sliced and rinsed well (white and light green parts)
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 cups canned low sodium chicken broth
4 slices thick bacon, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese (about 1/4 pound, see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallion tops or 2 tablespoons chives

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. Scrub the potatoes, pat dry, and pierce several times with a fork. Set them directly on the oven rack and bake until very tender, about 1 hour. Let cool completely on a cooling rack.
  • *Cook's Note: Sharp cheese works well in this soup because it melts smoothly. Extra sharp will give you a more pronounced flavor but because of the lower moisture content, the soup will be less smooth.

BACON CHEDDAR POTATO SOUP RECIPE - (4.7/5)



Bacon Cheddar Potato Soup Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by á-11135

Number Of Ingredients 10

4-5 medium yukon gold potatoes (cut into shoe string fry pieces)
3 cans of Campbell's Cheddar Cheese Soup
1 can Campbell's Chicken Broth
1/2 cup of onion, finely diced
1 large clove of garlic (or 2 if small)
5-6 pieces of bacon, cut into small pieces
2 cups of milk
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Salt
Shredded cheddar cheese for garnish

Steps:

  • Start by boiling your potatoes in salted water, which should take about 15 minutes. While the potatoes are boiling, start on the base of the soup. In a heavy bottom pan over medium high heat, brown the bacon until crispy (I love my Dutch oven for this). Remove the bacon pieces and put on a paper towel lined plate, reserving them for the garnish. To the rendered bacon fat, add in the onion and garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes, until it becomes slightly translucent. Add in the chicken broth, then reduce to medium heat (make sure to scrape up any bacon residue from the bottom of the pan - it's got killer flavor!) Reduce the chicken broth/onion mixture for 5-6 minutes, until it's about 1/4 of the original amount. While the broth is reducing, in a bowl mix together three cans of Campbell's Cheddar Soup, 2 cups of milk and the black pepper. Once the broth is reduced, add in the Cheddar Cheese Soup mixture to the broth. When the potatoes are cooked, drain then add to the cheese soup mixture. And that's it!

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cut bacon and shredded cheddar cheese.
  • For a creamier soup, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little spice.
  • Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers.
  • Garnish the soup with chopped chives or green onions.

Conclusion:

This bacon cheddar potato soup is a hearty and flavorful soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Serve it with a side of crusty bread or crackers and enjoy!
