Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons neutral-flavored oil, such as grapeseed
1 medium yellow onion, coarsely chopped
Kosher salt
4 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
4 cups vegetable broth, plus more if needed
2 cups unsweetened almond milk
4 ripe medium Hass avocados, pitted, peeled and halved
1 packed cup cilantro, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
4 teaspoons roasted salted pepitas, for serving
4 teaspoons minced chives, for serving
Tortilla chips, for serving
1/4 cup neutral-flavored oil, such as grapeseed
1/2 ounce dried chiles de árbol (15 to 20 chiles), stemmed
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Make the soup: Heat a medium pot over medium-low. Add the oil and heat, then add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and slightly brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook to slightly brown, another 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cumin and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds, then add the vegetable broth.
  • Allow the mixture to come to a simmer and cook until the onion and garlic are soft and cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes, then add the almond milk and turn off the heat. Allow the mixture to cool to lukewarm.
  • To finish the soup, combine the avocados, cilantro, lime juice, broth mixture and a pinch of salt in a blender. Blend until completely smooth, adding up to ½ cup of broth or water as needed if the mixture is too thick. (You may need to do this in batches.) Taste and season with more salt if necessary. Chill if you prefer the soup cold.
  • Make the chile oil: Heat a small saucepan over medium-low, then add the oil and chiles. Continuously stir the chiles in the hot oil until they become fragrant, deepen in color and stain the oil a red-orange hue, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor with a pinch of salt and pulse until the chiles are finely ground.
  • Serve at room temperature or refrigerate until chilled to serve cold. Divide the soup among bowls and garnish with pepitas, chives, tortilla chips and chile oil.

MEXICAN CHICKEN SOUP WITH CHICK PEAS, AVOCADO AND CHIPOTLES



Mexican Chicken Soup With Chick Peas, Avocado and Chipotles image

This is inspired by a traditional Mexican soup called sopa tlalpeño. The chipotles, added shortly before serving, infuse the soup with a smoky, picante flavor. Cook the chicken breasts a day ahead, and use the broth for the soup. Once the chicken is cooked, the soup is quickly thrown together.

Time 40m

Yield Serves six

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 quarts defatted chicken broth
1 medium onion, preferably a white onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 cup diced carrot
1 1/2 cups (1 15-ounce can) cooked chick peas, rinsed
Salt, preferably kosher salt, to taste
1 cup diced zucchini
1 large whole chicken breast or 2 boneless, skinless breasts, poached and shredded (about 4 cups shredded chicken)
2 chipotle chiles, rinsed, seeded and cut into thin strips
3 to 4 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 medium avocado, sliced
Lime wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Combine the chicken stock, onion, garlic, carrot, chick peas and salt to taste in a large soup pot, and bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes. Add the zucchini, and simmer for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and the broth fragrant but the zucchini has not lost all of its brightness. Taste and adjust salt.
  • Just before serving, stir in the chicken, chipotles and cilantro, and heat through. Ladle the soup into bowls. Place a few avocado slices in each bowl, squeeze in a little lime juice and serve, passing additional lime wedges at the table.

Tips:

  • Use ripe avocados: The riper the avocados, the creamier and more flavorful your soup will be. Look for avocados that are dark green in color and slightly soft to the touch.
  • Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice will give your soup a bright and tangy flavor. If you don't have fresh lime juice, you can substitute bottled lime juice, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Use a good quality chipotle chile: Chipotle chiles are smoked jalapeños. They have a smoky and spicy flavor that will add a nice depth of flavor to your soup. You can find chipotle chiles in most grocery stores in the Mexican food section.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be cooked just until the vegetables are tender. Overcooking the soup will make the vegetables mushy and the soup will lose its vibrant color.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: You can serve the soup with a variety of toppings, such as chopped cilantro, diced avocado, crumbled queso fresco, or sour cream.

Conclusion:

Avocado lime soup is a delicious and refreshing soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover avocados. With its creamy texture, tangy flavor, and smoky heat, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy soup recipe, give avocado lime soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
