Ingredients

1/2 cup wild rice, uncooked
4 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
2 carrots, chopped
1/4 cup flour
4 cups fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 cup chopped cooked chicken
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 cup (1/2 of 8-oz. tub) PHILADELPHIA Spicy Jalapeño Cream Cheese Spread
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

Cook rice as directed on package, omitting salt. Meanwhile, cook and stir bacon in large saucepan on medium heat until crisp. Remove from pan with slotted spoon, reserving 1 Tbsp. drippings in pan. Drain bacon on paper towels.
Add onions and carrots to reserved drippings in pan; cook 5 min. or until crisp-tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in flour; cook and stir 1 min. Add broth, chicken and cumin; stir. Bring to boil on high heat, stirring frequently; simmer on medium-low heat 10 min. or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.
Stir in rice, cream cheese spread and pepper. Cook and stir 3 min. or until cream cheese is melted and soup is thickened. Stir in half the bacon and cilantro. Ladle soup into soup bowls; top with remaining bacon.
