Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 slices of Irish bacon or thick-cut bacon, diced
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 3 large potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 3 cups green cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup carrots, sliced
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 cup heavy cream (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Cook the Bacon:
Begin by cooking the diced Irish bacon in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until it’s crisp. Once cooked, remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set it aside, leaving the flavorful drippings in the pot.

2. Sauté Onions and Garlic:
Add the chopped onion to the pot with the reserved bacon drippings. Sauté the onion until it becomes translucent, which should take about 5 minutes. Then, add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute until the garlic is fragrant.

3. Add Broth and Potatoes:
Next, pour in the chicken broth and add the diced potatoes. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for approximately 10 minutes, allowing the potatoes to begin softening.

4. Add Cabbage and Carrots:
Incorporate the shredded cabbage, sliced carrots, bay leaf, dried thyme, and black pepper into the pot. Continue to simmer the soup for another 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have melded together.

5. Optional Cream Addition:
For a creamier texture, you can stir in the heavy cream at this point. Heat the soup through without letting it boil to keep the cream from curdling.

6. Season and Garnish:
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Don’t forget to remove the bay leaf before serving.

7. Serve:
Ladle the warm soup into bowls and garnish with the crispy cooked bacon and a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and extra flavor.
