Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes (peeled and diced into 1" chunks)
  • 1 large yellow onion (chopped)
  • 3 tbsp garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup bacon bits (chopped)
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 4 cups chicken stock
  • 1/3 cup all purpose flour
  • 4 tbsp butter (salted)
  • 2 cups half and half
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • Shredded cheddar cheese, chives, bacon bits, sour cream (Optional garnishes)

Instructions 

  • In a large crock pot add chopped Yukon gold potatoes, onion, garlic, chopped bacon, chili powder, salt, pepper, chicken stock and simmer on high heat for 6-8 hours or until potatoes are fork tender.
  • About 30 minutes before serving time, add butter, flour, and half and half to a nonstick skillet to cook the roux for the soup at medium heat. Whisk until smooth for 3-4 minutes. Add the roux into the slow cooker as well as the sour cream.
