✨Chicken Bacon Ranch Cheesy Broccoli Tortellini Soup✨
1. Grab a pot and start cooking 12 ounces of bacon chopped on a low to medium heat. Cook until crisp and remove from your pot leaving the bacon grease.
2. While that bacon cooks take 2 chicken breasts and chop into small cubes. Season however you would like. I seasoned with ranch seasoning, slap ya mama seasoning and smoked paprika.
3. Now cook that chicken in your bacon grease at medium to high heat. Cook 2-3 minutes on both sides then remove from your pot.
4. There should be 1-2 tablespoons of bacon grease left if not just add another tablespoon of butter here. I then added 3 tablespoons of butter. Once about melted add 1 small diced yellow onion. When the onion is translucent add 1/4 cups of flour. Whisk about 2 minutes until browned a bit.
5. Now slowly add 2 cups of milk while whisking. Then add 2 cups of chicken broth while whisking. Season again with same seasoning.
6. Now to that pot add 1-2 cups of finely chopped broccoli. Bring to a boil then simmer for about 15 minutes.
7. Once that 15 minutes is up add 2-3 cups of freshly shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until smooth.
8. Now add around 2 cups of frozen tortellini. These will only take a few minutes to cook.
9. Then add your chicken back to your pot and top with some of that bacon.
10. Enjoy!! Serve with more of your bacon on the top!
