Ingredients

8 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
2 carrots, peeled, sliced
2 stalks celery, sliced
1 large onion, chopped
1/3 cup flour
1-1/4 qt. (5 cups) water
4 tsp. WYLER'S Instant Bouillon Chicken Flavored Granules
1 Tbsp. GREY POUPON Dijon Mustard
1 pkg. (8 oz.) KRAFT Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese

Steps:

Cook and stir bacon in large saucepan on medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard all but 1 Tbsp. drippings from pan.
Add chicken and vegetables to reserved drippings in pan; cook 5 to 8 min. or until chicken is no longer pink and vegetables are crisp-tender, stirring frequently. Whisk in flour until blended. Gradually stir in water. Add bouillon and mustard; stir until bouillon is dissolved. Simmer on medium-low heat 10 min., stirring occasionally.
Add cheese in small batches, cooking and stirring after each addition until cheese is completely melted. (Do not allow soup to come to boil.) Serve topped with bacon.
