Preparation
Step 1
In a 5-quart Dutch oven or other heavy pot, cook bacon over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper towel–lined plate to drain. Increase heat to medium. Add onion and cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, 6 to 8 minutes.
Step 2
Add flour; cook, stirring constantly, 30 seconds (do not let brown). Add broth and potato; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer; cook until potato is tender, about 10 minutes.
Step 3
Add broccoli, corn, thyme, and milk; cook until broccoli is crisp-tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately, topped with bacon.
