Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups diced Yukon Gold potatoes (about 2 pounds)
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons chopped chives

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  4. Add diced potatoes and chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  5. Carefully transfer about half of the soup to a blender and blend until smooth, or use an immersion blender directly in the pot. Return blended soup to the pot if using a regular blender.
  6. Stir in milk, salt, and pepper. Heat through, but do not boil.
  7. Ladle soup into bowls.
  8. Top each serving with shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped chives.

Notes

  • For a thicker soup, use fewer potatoes or add a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water) and simmer for a few minutes until thickened.
  • You can use other types of potatoes like Russet or red potatoes.
  • Adjust seasoning to your taste.
  • Feel free to add other toppings like sour cream or green onions.
