6 slices bacon, cut into small 1\/2″ pieces
\n1 medium onion, diced
\n3 celery stalks, diced
\n3 parsnips, diced
\n1 pound fingerling or Yukon Gold potatoes, diced
\n2 jalape\u00f1os, seeded and diced
\n2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
\n1\/4 cup white wine
\n6 cups chicken or vegetable stock
\n4 cups butternut squash pur\u00e9e
\n1\/2 cup cream
\nkosher salt and pepper
\n
In a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium to medium-high heat, brown bacon pieces until crisp. Remove bacon bits and set aside to drain. Spoon bacon grease out of the pan, leaving approximately 2 tablespoons’ worth. Add onion, celery and parsnips to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until onions and celery are soft. Add in potatoes, jalape\u00f1os and sage. Stir to combine and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes.
\n
Pour white wine into the pot and stir to combine, deglazing the pan. Pour in the chicken stock and increase heat to medium-high. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-12 minutes until potatoes are tender. Stir in the butternut squash pur\u00e9e and heavy cream. Stir to combine and continue cooking until heated through, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm with bacon bits sprinkled liberally over the top.

\nMakes 8-10 meal-sized servings.
