Time 45m

Yield 10 servings (1 cup each)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
2 yellow onions, chopped
4 stalks celery, chopped
1 tsp. dried thyme leaves
2 lb. baking potatoes (about 6), peeled, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
3 cups water
2 cups milk
1 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, cubed
4 cans (6-1/4 oz. each) minced clams, undrained
2 green onions, cut into thin slices

Steps:

  • Cook and stir bacon in Dutch oven over medium heat until crisp. Remove bacon from pan with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard all but 2 Tbsp. dripping from pan.
  • Add yellow onions, celery and thyme to reserved bacon drippings; cook and stir 5 min. or until crisp-tender. Add potatoes, water and 2 Tbsp. bacon; stir. Bring to boil, stirring occasionally. Simmer over medium-low heat 15 to 20 min. or just until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.
  • Microwave milk and cream cheese in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1-1/2 min. or until milk is heated through. Whisk until cream cheese is completely melted and sauce is well blended. Add to potato mixture; stir.
  • Stir in clams; cook 2 min. or until heated through, stirring frequently. (Do not let chowder come to boil.) Remove pan from heat.
  • Top with green onions and remaining bacon.
