01 Step
Recipe View
In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven, cook bacon lardons over medium heat until crisp and golden brown. (Approximately 8-10 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
Remove the crispy bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate, reserving about 3 tablespoons of rendered bacon fat in the pan.
03 Step
Recipe View
Add the chopped onion to the rendered bacon fat and sauté over medium heat until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
04 Step
Recipe View
Introduce the cubed potatoes and add enough water (or chicken broth for a richer flavor) to just cover the potatoes. Bring to a gentle simmer.
05 Step
Recipe View
Cover the pot and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, approximately 15-20 minutes.
06 Step
Recipe View
In a separate bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of chicken soup and milk until smooth and well combined.
07 Step
Recipe View
Pour the soup mixture into the potato mixture. Gently heat through, being careful not to boil. (Approximately 3-5 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View
Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Stir in the dried dill weed (or fresh dill, if using).
09 Step
Recipe View
Crumble the cooked bacon and stir it into the soup just before serving, reserving some for garnish, or sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top of each serving as a delightful garnish.
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or a dash of smoked paprika to the soup.
If you prefer a smoother consistency, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup before adding the bacon.
Garnish with a dollop of sour cream or a swirl of heavy cream for added richness.
This soup is even better the next day, as the flavors meld together beautifully. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
