Instructions
1
Slice your bacon into small bits and add to a large stockpot over medium heat.
Cook until crispy then remove from the pan and drain on paper towels. (save for
topping the soup)
2
If you have a lot of bacon drippings in your pan, discard most of it but leave
about 2 tablespoons in the pot (no need to measure exactly)
3
Add your diced onions, diced bell peppers, and diced jalapeño to the bacon
drippings in the pot and cook until softened. (about 5-7 minutes)
4
Add in the garlic and cook for about 1 more minute.
5
Sprinkle in the flour and stir to coat the vegetables. Cook for 1 minute while
stirring just to get rid of the raw flour taste.
6
Add in the chicken broth, all of the corn, beans, potatoes, raw chicken breasts,
all of the seasonings and 1/2 cup of water.
7
Bring everything to a full boil, then lower the heat to a simmer for 25 minutes.
After the 20-25 minutes, you can make sure the chicken is cooked and the
potatoes are fork tender.
8
Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it carefully using 2 forks.
9
Before you add the chicken back in the pot, you can blend about 1/3 of the soup
to make it extra creamy. I use an immersion blender. If you are using a regular
blender, see the *notes below.
10
After blending, add the shredded chicken and the heavy cream to the pot. Cook
for 5 more minutes then serve with **toppings of your choice!
