Directions:
Roast the poblano peppers:
-
Use the broiler function in your oven to roast the peppers. Arrange them on a baking sheet directly below the broiler. Turn the peppers occasionally until they start to blacken and the peel begins to crack.
-
​When peppers are blacked put them in a plastic bag for 10 minutes to cool and then peel the skin off and dice.
Prepare the Base:
-
In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
-
Saute the diced onions in oil for about 5 minutes until softened, stirring occasionally.
-
Add in minced garlic and ground cumin and let it toast for 1 minute.
Create the Broth:
-
Pour in the chicken broth and season with salt.
-
Add in the diced poblano peppers. Heat the mixture to a simmer.
Blend and Thicken:
-
If using a stick blender, puree the soup directly in the saucepan. Alternatively, transfer the mixture to a blender to puree and then return the pureed soup to the saucepan.
-
In a small bowl, toss the shredded cheese with cornstarch.
-
Over medium heat, stir the cheese-cornstarch mixture into the pureed soup until the cheese is melted and the soup thickens slightly.
Add Shredded Chicken:
-
If desired, stir in the cooked and shredded chicken into the soup. Heat until the chicken is warmed through.
