Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 4 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Optional Toppings:

  • Crumbled bacon
  • Chopped green onions
  • Additional shredded cheese

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Cook the Ground Beef
    In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Break it into crumbles as it cooks. Drain excess fat and set the beef aside.
  2. Step 2: Sauté Aromatics
    In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
  3. Step 3: Prepare the Potatoes
    Add the diced potatoes to the pot along with the chicken broth. Season with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  4. Step 4: Make the Cream Base
    In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour and milk until smooth. Gradually stir this mixture into the pot. Add the heavy cream and stir to combine. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the soup thickens.
  5. Step 5: Add Cheese and Beef
    Reduce the heat to low and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, one handful at a time, until fully melted. Return the cooked ground beef to the pot and mix well. Let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes to blend the flavors.
