MEXICAN CHICKEN MEATBALL SOUP (SOPA DE ALBONDIGAS DE POLLO)
A delicious soup recipe. Ground chicken meatballs are simmered in chicken broth with zucchini and chayote. I like to serve it with fresh spinach, chopped avocado, lemon juice, and chipotle chile.

Steps:
- Combine 4 tomatoes, 1/2 an onion, and garlic in a blender. Blend until smooth.
- Heat oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the blended tomato mixture; cook until mixture changes color, about 5 minutes. Add chicken stock, reduce heat, and simmer while you prepare the meatballs.
- Place ground chicken in a bowl. Add 3 chopped tomatoes, chopped onion, egg, rice, mint, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well with your hands until mixture is uniform. Take about 1/4 cup of mixture and form into round meatballs using wet hands. Place on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining chicken mixture.
- Bring stock mixture to a boil. Place a meatball into a ladle and submerge into the boiling stock. Remove ladle and repeat with remaining meatballs.
- Place zucchini, chayote, and carrots into the stock. Bring to a boil again. Lower heat, season with salt, and cover. Simmer until meatballs are no longer pink in the center and vegetables are soft, about 30 minutes.

SOPA DE ALBóNDIGAS (MEXICAN MEATBALL SOUP)
Ask 10 people for a recipe for a particular dish, and you'll probably get 10 different recipes. Mexican sopa de albóndigas is no exception. Most variations are likely to involve vegetables, rice, a tomato-based broth and, inevitably, meatballs. Wesley Avila, the chef of Guerrilla Tacos in Los Angeles, learned this recipe from his mother, who learned it from her grandmother. His meatballs are hefty in size but light in density, and follow his family's tradition of adding uncooked white rice to the pork-beef mixture before shaping it into balls and cooking: "My mom always told me that when the rice is done, the soup is ready," Mr. Avila said. "She used it almost as a timer." The toppings - piled on as you would atop chili - skew cheffy, but they are entirely optional.

Steps:
- Prepare the meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the beef, pork, rice, mint, garlic, salt and pepper. Using your hands, gently mix until well combined. Pinch off 2-ounce portions and gently roll between your palms to form golf ball-size rounds, transferring rounds to a sheet pan. (You should have about 28 meatballs.)
- In large pot, combine the olive oil, onion, carrots, celery and potato; season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste, garlic, bay leaves, oregano and cumin, and cook over medium, stirring frequently, until fragrant and tomato paste starts to caramelize, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock and tomato sauce and bring to a simmer over high.
- Once the stock begins to bubble, reduce the heat to medium-low. Carefully add the meatballs, one by one, distributing them evenly in the pot until they're all submerged. If necessary, reduce the heat to reach a low simmer (this will keep the meatballs tender), and cook until the meatballs and rice are cooked through, about 40 minutes. (Resist the urge to stir for the first 20 minutes, otherwise you risk breaking the meatballs apart before they've firmed up.) Skim any impurities from the surface as the soup simmers.
- Season to taste with salt. Divide the soup among bowls, about four or five meatballs per portion, and set out bowls of whatever garnishes you like.
SOPA DE ALBONDIGAS Y MACARRONES (MEXICAN MEATBALL PASTA SOUP)
A homestyle soup I make often.The recipe looks long and tedious,but that's just because I've spelled it out step by step.Keep in mind this is usually a last minute meal and so it's a very fly-by-the -seat-of -your pants recipe and is open to a lot of variation and substitutions.Feel free to use less garlic,and the cumin,oregano,and chile are really just to taste as well.You may not want to use 1whole tablespoons of cumin or chile.Use your instinct and taste as you go.Note:I like the flavor of the roasted tomato sauce but you can make the sauce with tomato puree if you want to save time.Any pasta shape you like will work.I usually have macarroni or penne.If you use something smaller like angel hair,stars,or alphabet noodles watch them carefully so they don't overcook.This is nice with some eggs poached in the broth,especially if you need to stretch the meat you have and make this feed more people.Add them when the meatballs are all but done and just make sure the broth is barely simmering .Serve with lime halves to squeeze into the broth.Yield is approximate.

Steps:
- Peel the onion and cut in half.Mince enough onion to make about two tablepoons-mince very finely and set aside.Chop about 1/4 of the onion(or 1/2 if using two small onions),set aside.Peel 2 cloves of the garlic and mince.
- Roast and grind the cumin seeds.
- Wash,dry,and chop the cilantro finely.
- Mix the meat,2 tablespoons minced onion,minced garlic, about 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin,about 2 teaspoons cilantro,the egg,and the cracker crumbs.Season generously with fresh black pepper,and if desired salt.Set aside.
- Make the tomato sauce:Heat a cast iron skillet or grill over medium heat until very hot.Add about 1/2 of the garlic cloves,unpeeled.Roast,turning occasionally,until they have black spots on each side.Remove from the pan.Add the unchopped onion,cut into very large chunks.Roast about 5 minutes ,without turning.After 5 minutes,turn to check.They should be blackened.Repeat for other side.You can place them in the pan at the same time you begin roasting the garlic if your pan is large enough.They should be done a few minutes after the garlic.It is not necessary for the onion to cook through,just to soften a bit and have black spots on the outside.Peel the garlic and place in a blender jar with the onion.
- Turn heat up to medium high.Place the whole tomatoes in the same pan and roast until blackened on one side,flip and roast on other side.Tomatoes should be quite soft and may have burst where they are blackenet.Place in the blender with the onion and garlic.Set aside to cool a few minutes.
- Peel the remaining raw garlic and add to the blender.Add cumin,salt,pepper, chile powder,and Mexican oregano to taste.Add about 1 cup water or broth and blend to a smooth puree.
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium.When hot,add the dry pasta,lower heat to medium low,and cook,stirring often,until the pasta has begun to brown lightly .Add the reserved chopped onion and the carrots and the bay leaf and continue sauteeing,stirring,until the onion and carrots soften .
- Add half of the sauce and enough water or broth to cover the pasta by about 2 inches.Raise heat to bring to a boil.
- Let pasta simmer until it is al dente;the time will vary according to the size of your pasta-do not remove pasta from the pot.
- Form small meatballs and add to the pot of boiling soup.If you have room it is best to do this in one batch.I use about 1 tablespoon of the mixture to form each meatball.
- Add the remaining sauce and the cilantro.Cover the pot,and lower the heat slightly.Check after about 3 minutes,you may need to turn the meatballs so they cook evenly.
- Continue cooking until the meatballs are cooked through and have no pink in the middle.This may take about 7 minutes(again this depends on how large you made the meatballs).
- Serve hot with limes to squeeze into the broth.

SOPA DE ALBONDIGAS (MEXICAN MEATBALL SOUP)
It's kind of funny for a gringa like me to say this is a favorite I grew up on, but it's true; my dad learned it from a Mexican friend way back, and it's been my favorite soup as long as I can remember. My dad always uses celery; I don't always have it around, it's fine to omit it. Feel free to adjust seasonings to taste. The tomatillos thicken this dish as well as adding flavor; I haven't seen them in any other recipe, but I consider them essential! Almost all measurements are approximate; I just judge by eye and throw stuff in! This soup is killer with homemade tortillas.
