Ingredients:
- 6 oz. bacon
- 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs cut into cubes
- 1 cup onion diced
- 3 cups butternut squash *peeled and cubed
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. paprika
- 1 tsp. poultry seasoning
- 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
- 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
- 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 serving Savory Chicken Soup Keto Chow
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups cheddar cheese grated
- 2 green onion sliced thin (use both the white and tender green parts)
- 1 Tbsp. fresh parsley minced
Directions:
- Cook the bacon in a large heavy-bottomed soup pot or Dutch oven over low heat until crisp.
- Remove the cooked bacon pot and set aside. Leave the bacon fat in the pot.
- Raise the heat to medium and add the chicken thighs. Brown them on both sides.
- Add the onions and cook until translucent and starting to brown.
- Add the garlic powder, paprika, poultry seasoning, black pepper, and cayenne pepper and stir everything well.
- Add the cubed squash and the chicken broth.
- Raise the heat to high and let cook, stirring to loosen any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pan, until the soup comes to a boil.
- Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and keep the soup at a simmer until the squash is tender enough to be easily pierced with a fork.
- Ladle one cup of broth out of the pot into a heat safe dish. Mix in the Keto Chow and sour cream until dissolved.
- Slowly pour this mixture back into the pot of soup while stirring.
- Add the cheese, green onions and parsley to the pot and heat through, stirring until the cheese is melted.
- Crumble the reserved cooked bacon.
- Serve the soup garnished with the bacon.
*The butternut squash adds a lot of net carbs. If desired, reduce or eliminate the squash to adjust the macros.
