Step-by-Step Instructions for Creamy Pierogi Chicken Soup
- In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat and add diced bacon. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until crispy and golden brown. Remove bacon and set aside, keeping drippings in the pot.
- Add diced onion to the pot with the bacon drippings and sauté for about 5 minutes until translucent. Stir in minced garlic and chopped rosemary, cooking for an additional minute.
- Add diced chicken breasts to the pot. Season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes until chicken is browned and cooked through.
- Pour in the chicken broth and raise heat to bring to a gentle simmer. Simmer for about 2 minutes.
- Stir in the pierogi and maintain a gentle simmer, following package cooking instructions (usually about 5-7 minutes).
- Gradually whisk in heavy cream and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Ladle soup into bowls, topping each with crispy bacon bits and optionally sprinkle with parsley.
