INGRIDIENT

4 slices bacon

1 cup chopped carrot

½ cup chopped celery

½ medium onion, chopped

3 ½ cups chicken broth

DIRECTION

Step: 1

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and crumble when cool enough to handle. Discard all but 2 teaspoons bacon drippings from the pan.

Step: 2

Add carrot, celery, and onion to the bacon drippings. Saute over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add 1 cup chicken broth, garlic powder, salt, bay leaf, and pepper. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 minutes. Add potatoes and remaining chicken broth; cook for 10 minutes. Add evaporated milk, increase heat to a simmer, and cook for 5 minutes.

Step: 3

Serve with crumbled bacon and grated Asiago cheese.
