Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium (peeled and diced) Russet potatoes
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 1 large (diced) Yellow onion
- 3 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup (shredded, plus extra for topping) Cheddar cheese
- 2 stalks (chopped, for topping) Green onions
- 4 strips (cooked and crumbled, for topping) Bacon
Instructions
Peel and dice the potatoes into bite-sized cubes. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.
In a crock pot, combine the diced potatoes, chicken broth, diced onion, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Once the potatoes are fully cooked, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup, leaving some potato chunks for texture. Alternatively, carefully remove 2 cups of soup, blend until smooth, and return it to the crock pot.
Add the unsalted butter, heavy cream, and shredded cheddar cheese to the soup. Stir until the butter is melted and the cheese is fully incorporated.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if required.
Serve the soup hot in bowls and garnish with extra shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, and crumbled bacon.
