Ingredients

6 servings

  • 4 slices bacon
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3 jalapeno peppers, diced
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, diced
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
  • 0.5 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
  • 0.25 cup heavy cream
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
  • While bacon is cooking, melt butter in a pot over medium-high heat. Add jalapeño peppers and garlic; cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add chicken broth, cilantro, Cajun seasoning, and onion powder; stir up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and add chicken. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add cream cheese, most of the Cheddar cheese, and heavy cream. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until cheese has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve soup with remaining Cheddar. Crumble bacon over top.
