Cooking Recipe Cavanagh'S Cream Of Poblano Soup
Recipe Ingredients
Directions
Cut 3 tortillas into ninths, place in food processor and chop until
fine. Add flour, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Blend to the
consistency of cornmeal. Place oil in stockpot over medium-high heat.
Add onion, 1/2 cup poblano pepper and garlic. Saute until onion is
clear. Add butter and let melt. Add tortilla-flour mixture to the pan
and mix to form a roux. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, stirring with a wire
whip. Do not let mixture burn. While stirring, slowly add stock,
scraping down sides and bottom often. Add half-and-half. Bring to a
slow simmer and cook 7 to 10 minutes. Do not let soup come to a hard
boil. Turn off heat and let cool. Add chicken before serving. Top
each serving with shredded cheese, diced poblano pepper and tortilla
strips. ** Houston Chronicle 8/2/95 **
