Directions
- Add bacon slices to a dutch oven and cook over medium-high heat until crispy. Remove bacon, crumble and set aside. Discard all but 1 TBSP of the bacon grease from the dutch oven.
- Set aside 1/4 cup of the diced red onion for topping the soup. Add the remaining diced onion to the dutch oven with the bacon grease and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for about 20 seconds or until garlic becomes fragrant.
- Carefully pour in the cans of beans and the chicken broth. Stir in the smoked paprika and bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer 10 minutes.
- Take off the heat. In batches add the soup to a blender or food processor and pulse until smooth. Return all the soup to the dutch oven, add salt and pepper to taste and if necessary warm to desired temperature.
- Serve soup topped with sour cream, the reserved red onion and crumbled bacon.
