Provided by Christian Reynoso

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

1-2 poblano or Anaheim chiles, seeds removed, thinly sliced
1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more
3 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp. tomato paste
1 medium green or yellow summer squash, cut into ½" pieces
1 lb. Yukon Gold potatoes (3-4 large), scrubbed, cut into ½" pieces
6 cups chicken broth (not low-sodium)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
⅓ cup oregano or marjoram leaves
1½ tsp. red wine vinegar
½ cup whole milk or half-and-half (optional)
10 oz. queso fresco, cut into ½" pieces
