Cooking Steps

Cook bacon
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • On a parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange bacon in a single layer.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 10-14 min, until bacon is crisp and cooked through.**
  • Using tongs, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to cool.
Make croutons
2
  • Meanwhile, cut ciabatta into 1-inch pieces.
  • On an unlined baking sheet, toss together ciabatta with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season salt and pepper.
  • Toast in the bottom of the oven for 8-10 min, until croutons are golden and crisp.
Prep and cook chicken
3
  • While the croutons bake, core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green parts separate.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Sear for 3-4 min per side, until chicken is golden and cooked through.**
Cook veggies
4
  • Heat a large pot over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then stir until butter melts.
  • Add garlic, peppers, corn and green onion whites. Cook for 3 min, stirring occasionally, until peppers start to soften and corn begins to brown slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Sprinkle flour over veggies. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until veggies are coated.
Start soup
5
  • Add cream cheese, stock powder and 1 1/2 cups (3 cups) water. Carefully whisk until cream cheese is well combined. Bring soup up to a simmer. Once simmering, cook for 2-3 min, stirring occasionally, until soup thickens slightly.
  • Remove from heat, then stir in pesto. Season with pepper, to taste.
Finish and serve
6
  • Crumble or cut bacon into bite-sized pieces. (TIP: Use kitchen shears to cut bacon with ease.)
  • Thinly slice chicken.
  • Divide soup between bowls. Top with bacon, chicken and croutons.
  • Sprinkle with cheese and green onion greens.
