{football friday} spicy beer-cheese corn soup

Let's label this one as "slightly" lightened. 

 

I'm not calling this the lightest of my offerings for {football friday}, but I will say it's super-fast and temptingly tasty. Those should be reason enough to add it to your football food line-up, right? 

 

Spicy Beer-Cheese Corn Soup

by Regan @ The Professional Palate

Keywords: soup/stew fall

Ingredients (5 cups)

  • 2 slices bacon
  • 1/2 medium sweet onion, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seed
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 3/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 bottle beer
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 (15.25-ounce) can sweet corn kernels, drained (about 1 1/2 cup)
  • 1 cup Greek-style yogurt (I used Cabot)
  • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Pepper Jack cheese (I used Cabot)
  • Hot sauce, optional

Instructions

Add bacon to a large skillet over medium heat. Cook until done. Remove bacon from skillet, coarsely chop and set aside. Discard all but 1 teaspoon of dripping in pan.

Add onion to drippings in pan and saute 5 minutes. Add cumin seed, paprika and salt; cook 30 seconds, stirring constantly to keep seeds from burning. Stir in beer, water and corn; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in Greek-style yogurt until smooth. Gradually add in cheese and stir until melted. Serve warm topped with chopped bacon and hot sauce, if desired.
