Serves/Makes: 4
Ready in: < 30 minutes
- 1 tablespoon margarine
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 12 ounces light beer
- 1 container (14.5 ounce size) chicken broth
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 cups half and half
- 2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
Melt the butter or margarine in a 4 1/2 quart soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and Worcestershire sauce and stir well. Add the beer and raise the heat to high and boil for 3 minutes to evaporate the alcohol. Add the chicken broth and bring the soup back to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer. Combine the cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water and stir until smooth. Set aside. Add the half-and-half and shredded cheese to the soup. Stir constantly until the cheese melts. Then stir in the cornstarch mixture. Stir constantly until the soup is thick, about 2 minutes. Serve garnished with bacon bits.
