Chicken and Wild Rice Soup

3 cans chicken broth
2 cups water
1 box Uncle Bens wild rice
½ cup chopped onion
½ cup butter
¾ cup flour
2 cups half and half or milk
1 ½ cups cooked cubed chicken
½ package bacon, cooked and crumbled


Combine broth, water, rice, and onion in a large pot. Simmer for ½ an hour. Cook bacon and remove from pan. Cook chicken in bacon grease (optional, but tastes so yummy) and remove from pan. Make a roux with butter flour and milk. Combine chicken, roux, and rice mixture together. Top with bacon.
