Ingredients
Scale
- 6 slices bacon
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 1/2 cup chopped carrot
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the bacon in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon, reserving 1 tablespoon of drippings in the pot. Crumble the bacon and set aside for garnish.
- Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrot to the pot with the reserved bacon drippings. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced potatoes. Stir in the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
- While the potatoes are simmering, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, and flour in a small bowl until smooth. This mixture will create the warm creamy Outback Steakhouse texture.
- Once the potatoes are tender, gradually stir the cream mixture into the soup. Cook, stirring constantly, until the soup thickens to your desired consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
- Use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup, leaving some potato chunks for texture. Alternatively, transfer a portion of the soup to a regular blender, blend until smooth, and return to the pot. This step helps achieve that creamy dip like Outback Steakhouse.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Ladle the warm creamy Outback Steakhouse potato soup into bowls. Garnish with crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, and fresh chives. Serve this delightful Outback Steakhouse warm creamy dip with your favorite bread.
Notes
- For an even richer flavor, you can use half-and-half instead of milk.
- If you prefer a completely smooth soup, blend all of it until no chunks remain.
- This recipe for warm creamy bread dip can be made ahead of time and reheated gently. Add a splash of milk or broth if it’s too thick.
- To make this an easy Outback Steakhouse creamy dip, prepare your ingredients in advance.
