Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups water
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup medium-grain white rice
1 teaspoon olive oil
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.
  • Strain the chicken broth and transfer 2 cups to a pan; bring to a boil. Add rice to the boiling water, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until rice is tender and water is absorbed, about 17 minutes.
  • Heat olive oil in a stockpot over medium heat; cook and stir onion in the hot oil until softened, about 10 minutes. Mix the chicken broth, green chile peppers, cumin, 1 tablespoons oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder into onion. Cover stockpot and simmer.
  • Shred cooled chicken; add to simmering onion mixture. Simmer until chicken is cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Spoon 1/4 or the cooked rice into each serving bowl; sprinkle with 1 ounce Monterey Jack cheese. Ladle 1/4 of the soup into each bowl.

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

1 medium onion
2 whole cloves
5 cups beef broth
3 cups chicken broth
3 chicken breast halves, skinned
2 large baking potatoes, peeled and diced
2 anaheim chilies
2 3/4 cups fresh cut corn, about 4 ears
1 avocado, sliced
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
salt and pepper
sour cream, fresh cilantro sprigs

Steps:

  • Peel the onion and stud with the cloves. Combine the onion, broths, chicken and potato in a Dutch oven; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until the potato is tender.
  • Remove the onion. Remove the chicken, reserving the broth in the pan. Let the chicken cool, bone it, and chop the meat. Return the chicken to the pan; set aside.
  • Cut chiles in half lengthwis; remove seeds and membranes. Place chiles, skin side up, on an ungreased baking sheet; flatten with the palm of your hand. Broil 3 inches from the heat (with electric oven door partially opened) 6 minutes or until charred. Place chiles in ice water; peel and discard skins. 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.
