• In a large shallow dish, combine the curry, salt, pepper and cayenne. Add chicken, a few pieces at a time, and turn to coat., In a large saucepan over medium heat, cook the chicken, carrots, red pepper and onion in oil for 4 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrots, a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in the ginger and curry powder and cook, stirring, until the spices are toasted, about 30 seconds. Stir in the tomatoes and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, 3 cups water, the chard stems, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Meanwhile, heat the frozen rice in the microwave as the label directs. Cut the paneer into 1/2-inch cubes. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the paneer and cook, turning with a small spoon, until well browned on a few sides, 3 to 5 minutes (reduce the heat if necessary). Transfer to a plate and sprinkle with salt.
• Uncover the soup and reduce the heat to a simmer. Add the rice and chicken; simmer until the carrots are tender, 5 minutes. Stir in the chard leaves and simmer until tender, 5 minutes. Add more water if needed and season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the soup among bowls. Top with the paneer.

Steps:

• Preheat medium pot over medium high heat. Add olive oil, butter, onions and carrots and saute 5 minutes. Add 4 cups chicken stock, curry and cayenne, and about 1 teaspoon salt to the pot. Bring to a boil, cover and cook until carrots are very tender, about 15 minutes. Place pot on a trivet next to food processor. Process soup in 2 or 3 small batches until soup is smooth and carrots are fully pureed. Transfer processed soup into a large bowl as you work to make room for more soup in the food processor. Return completed soup to the soup pot and place back over low heat. If the soup is too thick, add remaining stock, up to 2 cups, to achieve desired consistency. Adjust seasonings. Place sour cream in a plastic condiment squeeze bottle or into a medium food storage bag. Cut a very small hole in the corner of the bag with scissors. Ladle soup into bowls and squirt a swirl of sour cream around the bowl from the center out to the rim. Drag a toothpick from the center of the bowls out to the edges, forming a spider web design on soup. Pile a few pieces of cut chives at the center of each bowl to resemble green spiders in their webs! Cool!

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Saute onion until tender and translucent. Stir in the curry powder. Add the chopped carrots, and stir until the carrots are coated. Pour in the vegetable broth, and simmer until the carrots are soft, about 20 minutes.

Add the rice and the remaining 3 cups broth. Increase the heat to medium, cover and simmer until the rice falls apart, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from its broth; discard the skin and shred the meat into pieces. Return the shredded chicken to the same broth.
• Puree the rice mixture with an immersion blender until smooth (or use a regular blender, then return to the pan). Pour in the shredded chicken and broth, stirring gently to combine; bring to a simmer. Toss in the chopped herbs and serve the soup with lemon wedges.

To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
