Ingredients
- 2 pounds potatoes scrubbed, peeled, and diced
- 4 cups low-sodium chicken stock
- 2 teaspoons chicken soup base
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 white onion chopped
- 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 teaspoons chives
- 2 tablespoons bacon bits plus more for garnish
- shredded cheese for garnish
- sour cream for garnish
Instructions
- Place the potatoes, chicken stock, and soup base in a medium pot and cook over medium heat for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and sauté until the onions are translucent. Sprinkle the flour over the onions, stir, and cook for a minute or two until fragrant.
- Add the potatoes and chicken stock to the onions in 1-cup increments, stirring after each addition, until the soup is well blended.
- Add the cream cheese and stir until it has melted. Add the salt, black pepper, chives, and bacon bits and mix well.
- Serve garnished with shredded cheese, bacon bits, and sour cream.
Notes
- 📌 PREP MASTERY
- 🌟 TEXTURE SECRETS
- 💡 BONUS TIP: Create a "toppings bar" with:
- Uniform 1-inch potato cubes ensure even cooking
- Pre-soak cut potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch
- Pat potatoes dry before adding to prevent splatter
- Mash or puree 1/4 of potatoes for creamier base (we love using an immersion blender for this.)
- Reserve crispy bacon bits for garnish
- Simmer on low to prevent cream from breaking
- Fresh chives
- Crispy bacon
- Shredded cheddar
- Sour cream
- Green onions
