Ingredients
- 6 trips thick-cut bacon
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 large chicken breasts about 1 pound
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 2 medium-sized Yukon gold potatoes chopped
- 1 vine-ripened tomato chopped
- 4 cups baby spinach
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ tsp sea salt to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat a large thick-bottomed pot (such as a Dutch oven) on a stove top over medium-high heat and transfer the strips of bacon to the hot surface. Cook, flipping every 2 minutes or so, until bacon reaches your desired level of crispiness. Once cooked to your liking, move the bacon to a plate and leave the bacon drippings in the large pot.
- Leaving the pot on medium-high heat, transfer the two chicken breasts to the hot surface and brown for 3-5 minutes per side, or until both sides are golden brown.
- Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
- Add the chopped onion to the pot, and saute, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5-8 minutes. Add in the fresh garlic and continue sautéing another 2 minutes.
- Transfer the chicken back to the bottom of the pot, along with the broth. Cover the pot and bring the soup mixture to a full boil. Once boiling, reduce to low heat (or medium-low heat) and cook at a gentle bubble for 45 minutes.
- Remove the cooked chicken breasts from the pot and transfer them to a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the chicken breasts and transfer the shredded chicken back into the pot.
- Add the chopped potatoes, tomato, and spinach to the pot. Cover and return to a full boil, then reduce the heat to a gentle boil. Cook for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes have softened to your liking.
- Stir in the heavy cream. Taste the soup for flavor and add sea salt and black pepper to your personal taste.
- Serve creamy chicken soup in big bowls with crusty bread and butter.
