Ingredients
- ½ lb Bacon strips extra thick
- 1 lb chicken diced into small bites
- 1 onion diced
- 2 tbsp garlic diced
- 1 bell pepper diced
- 2 Russet potatoes diced into small 1/2" squares
- 12 oz beef stock or ale-style beer
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 tbsp Italian herbs seasoning
- 1 cup heavy cream sub whole milk if needed
- 2 tsp celtic sea salt
- 2 tsp Fresh cracked pepper
Instructions
- In a large dutch oven, fry bacon on medium high heat until crunchy.
- Remove bacon from pan and set aside.
- Add chicken to pan and toss in bacon grease.
- When chicken has browned and is cooked through, add diced onion and garlic, cook with chicken until slightly browned, about 5 minutes.
- Add diced pepper and potato, stir into chicken and onion.
- Cook until vegetables release liquid and reduce by half, about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
- Add in beer or stock and bring back to boil, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, about 10 more minutes.
- When potatoes are soft, take a masher and softly mash in the pan. You won't mash up all the potatoes - but this will release some of their starch into the soup and thicken it without crushing the chicken.
- Add in bay leaves, salt and pepper, and herbs.
- Turn heat off to stir in cream.
- Slowly swirl in cream and whisk or stir vigorously while adding tto incorporate.
- Turn heat back on and let come to a rolling boil, then remove from stove.
- Generously season with salt and pepper until happy with seasoning.
- Crumble bacon on top.
- Serve immediately
