Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups water
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 small white onion, diced
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup chopped green chile peppers
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
4 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; add 1 tablespoon oregano, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder. Reduce heat, add chicken, and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove chicken from broth and set aside to cool.

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 medium poblano peppers
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium leeks, halved and sliced
2 medium Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Kosher salt
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

3/4 cup heavy cream
2 cups chopped or shredded skinless rotisserie chicken (or other cooked chicken)
1 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
Juice of 1 lime
Cilantro leaves, for garnish
Crumbled cotija cheese, for garnish

  • Serve the soup in bowls garnished with cilantro leaves and cotija.

GREEN CHILE, CHICKEN, AND CORN SOUP



Green Chile, Chicken, and Corn Soup image

This soup has some of my favorite things in it! I really enjoy it in the fall, just as the weather is turning cold. I can usually still find fresh corn at that time, and it's so great to have a warm soup on a crisp, chilly night! This is from "Southwest Cooks!", a collection of Native American cuisine.

Time 1h10m

Yield 13 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 anaheim chilies
2 3/4 cups fresh cut corn, about 4 ears
1 avocado, sliced
2 medium tomatoes, chopped

Coarsely chop the chiles, and add to the reserved broth mixture.
  • Stir in corn; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 4 minutes or until the corn is tender. Taste your soup, and add salt and pepper as needed (depends on the broth you originally used).
  • Ladle soup into individual soup bowls. Top each serving with avocado slices and chopped tomato. Garnish, if desired with sour cream and fresh cilantro.

GREEN CHILE CHICKEN SOUP



Green Chile Chicken Soup image

Ridiculously easy and quick. My husband's favorite. The only way to mess this one up is to add too much milk making the soup too thin. I got this recipe from my mother, but I don't know where it originated. The amounts can vary. You really can't mess this one up.
