Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 4 cups peeled and cubed Yukon Gold potatoes
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add garlic and onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add potatoes and chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup, leaving some chunks of potato for texture. Alternatively, carefully transfer half of the soup to a regular blender and blend until smooth, then return it to the pot.
- Stir in milk and cheddar cheese until cheese is melted and soup is smooth.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with fresh chives before serving.
Notes
For an extra layer of flavor, top with crispy bacon bits or a dollop of sour cream.
