  • 2 slices bacon, sliced in 1-inch strips
  • 1/2 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and diced  OPTIONAL, if you like spice!
  • 1 russet potato, diced
  • 1/2 small red pepper, diced
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 3 cups corn, canned or frozen
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme leaves OPTIONAL

  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups shredded or diced cooked chicken breast
  • Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish  OPTIONAL
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges  OPTIONAL

Quick 'n Easy Directions

First, cook bacon until crispy.

Put all ingredients except milk in large saucepan (or crock pot).  Cook until potatoes are soft.

In a blender, puree 1/4 to 1/2 of the mixture and add back to the pan. (Pureeing is optional but it makes the soup creamier)

Add milk and let simmer for about 5 minutes. Serve!

OPTION:  Garnish each bowl with cooked bacon, fresh cilantro and a lime wedge.
