Broil bell pepper and Chile peppers on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet 5" from heat for About 5 minutes. Have to blister each side of pepper.

Peppers look blistered – or black on top and somewhat bubbly when done. Place peppers in a heavy-duty-zip top plastic bag; seal and let stand 10 minutes to loosen skin.

I cut peppers in half length wise; remove seeds and lay cut side down.

Peel peppers; coarsely chop peppers.

Bring chopped roasted peppers, chicken broth and next 5 ingredients to a boil in a Dutch oven over Medium heat. Reduce heat, and simmer 25 minutes or until potatos are tender.

I used 4 potatoes or sometimes a few more.

Melt butter in a heavy sauce pan over low heat; whisk in flour and next 3 ingredients until smooth.
Cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Gradually whisk in half and half and milk.

Stir white sauce and milk into chicken broth mixture; cook over medium heat 8-10 minutes or

Until thickened and bubbly. Sprinkle each serving with cheese, bacon and green onions.
