Grilled Chicken Green Chili Soup Wcilantro Cream Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium pot over medium-high heat, combine onions, garlic, 1 cup corn kernels, 2 cans of the chiles, chicken stock, and Mexican seasoning. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add remaining corn and green chiles. Add mushrooms and saute for 10 minutes, or until water from mushrooms is released and evaporated; set aside.
• Transfer chile mixture to a blender. Puree until smooth, working in batches if necessary. *(TIP: Cover blender with dish towel and pulse.) Return puree to skillet and add sauteed vegetables. Bring to a boil. Reduce to low heat and stir in Mexican crema. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• Serve soup hot garnished with cilantro and cotija cheese.

Steps:

• Char the peppers over the stove burner flame until blackened all over. Place in a large bowl and cover tightly with a dish towel. Let cool. Peel and scrape off the blackened skins. Remove the stems and seeds from the peppers and cut into 1/4-inch pieces.
• Melt the butter in a medium Dutch oven over medium heat. When the butter is melted, add the leeks, potatoes and peppers and cook until the leeks are wilted, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Sprinkle with the flour and cook to remove the raw flour taste, about 2 minutes. Add the cumin, oregano and nutmeg. Pour in the chicken broth and 2 cups water. Stir to combine. Bring to a strong simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Add the cream, chicken and corn. Return to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened and flavorful, 10 to 15 minutes more. Stir in the lime juice and season with salt if needed.
• Serve the soup in bowls garnished with cilantro leaves and cotija.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for about a minute, until fragrant. Add chicken stock, raise heat and bring to a boil. When stock is boiling, remove 1/2 c. of broth and let it cool. To the boiling broth, add shredded chicken and green chile. After reserved broth is cool, add 1 Tbs. of flour to it and whisk until well blended. Add the flour mixture back into the boiling broth and mix well. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring frequently. In a small bowl, add the cream cheese. Gradually add the half and half, whisking constantly. This is so the mixture won't be as clumpy when you add it to the soup; if it's a little clumpy, don't worry because it will end up melting into the soup. Add the cream cheese mixture gradually into the soup, whisking constantly. When cream cheese mixture is added, reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer the soup for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the soup thickens. Do not boil. Ladle soup into bowls and enjoy! *Serve with warm flour tortillas if possible
