Recipes - Low Carb Chicken Bacon Chowder

Recipe Name

Low Carb Chicken Bacon Chowder

Recipe Description

This is one for the Crockpot and I have to warn you, it will make your whole house smell delicious! I tried to cut down the amount of prep work as much as possible, since the reason we use the crockpot in the first place is to be able to throw everything in and come home to supper being ready.

3	Retrieved from http://mysouthernaccent.tumblr.com/post/40879725960/low-carb-chicken-bacon-chowder Turn Crockpot on low and put vegetables and 1 ½ cups of Chicken Broth in the Crockpot with Butter and a pinch of Salt, cover. Cut Bacon into small pieces and cook until very crisp. Remove from pan and put aside. Leave 2 Tbs of Bacon grease in the bacon and place Chicken Breasts in the pan to sear on both sides. Remove Chicken and cut into small cubes. Use remaining ½ cup of Chicken Broth to de-glaze the pan, pour this into the crockpot. Add Bacon, Chicken, Heavy Cream, Cream Cheese and Seasonings, stirring until well blended. (Hint: I usually will sit the Cream Cheese on the stove while I am cooking, so the heat will soften it quicker and make it easier to mix in.) Cook on low setting for 6 Hours. You will need to stir well before serving, as it will separate while cooking. Garnish as you seem fit. I used fried onions and cheese. The fried onions that come in the can are surprising low in carbs and make a great garnish for soups, chili and salads.
