Step-by-Step Instructions
1
In a large pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the pot and set it aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
2
Add the onion, carrots, and celery to the pot and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
3
Add the garlic, thyme, salt, and black pepper to the pot and cook for 1 minute, until the garlic is fragrant.
4
Add the split peas, chicken broth, and milk to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the peas are tender.
5
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until it's smooth and creamy. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender and blend it in batches, then return it to the pot.
