Time 1h

Yield 3/4 cup, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onions (the recipe calls for a yellow onion but I used a red one and it just made the soup that much sweeter) or 1 medium red onion, thinly sliced (the recipe calls for a yellow onion but I used a red one and it just made the soup that much sweeter)
1 lb no salt added frozen white corn
3 cups fat free sodium free chicken broth
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves or 1 teaspoon crushed dried rosemary
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon white pepper (I used 1/4 teaspoon)
fresh rosemary (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large, heavy pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Cook the onion for 3 to 4 minutes, or until translucent, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the corn; cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the broth and rosemary; bring to a boil over medium heat.
  • Add the salt and white pepper.
  • Reduce the heat; simmer for 40 minutes (no stirring needed).
  • Working in batches, process the soup in a blender or food processor until almost smooth. (I just used my hand blender and put it right in the pot).
  • Reheat. (Not needed if using a hand blender).
  • To serve, garnish with rosemary sprigs.
