Loaded Baked Potato Broccoli Soup
TikTok star Tini Younger's hearty soup — Yukon Gold potatoes and broccoli simmered in a creamy, smoky broth with bacon, cheddar, and smoked Gouda, topped with sour cream and chives.
Ingredients
- 8 bacon slices, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, finely grated
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 broccoli crown, cut into small florets
- 8 ounces mild cheddar, grated
- 8 ounces smoked Gouda, grated
- Sour cream and chives for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the bacon in a large pot over medium heat until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Pour off all but about 2 tablespoons of bacon fat.
- Add the butter and onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes.
- Slowly drizzle in the chicken stock, whisking constantly. Stir in the milk, heavy cream, potatoes, and broccoli. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer until potatoes and broccoli are fork-tender, about 20 minutes.
- Remove from heat and mash about one third of the potatoes. Add the cheeses and stir until melted, then stir in half the bacon. Divide among bowls and top with sour cream, chives, and the remaining bacon.
