Cooking Directions
-
Cook bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate, then crumble and set aside.
-
Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in onion and garlic; cook and stir until garlic has softened and onion begins to turn golden brown, about 8 minutes. Scrape mixture into a small bowl. Remove garlic clove, mash, and return to the bowl.
-
Place beans and carrots into the same pot. Pour in chicken broth and enough water to just cover the vegetables; season with salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 minutes.
-
Stir in potatoes and cook until tender, about 30 minutes. Stir in garlic-onion mixture, cream, and remaining 4 tablespoons butter; return to a simmer.
-
Dissolve flour in 1/2 cup water and stir into the soup. Cook and stir until soup has thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve with crumbled bacon.
