Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
½ pound peeled baby carrots
½ cup instant brown rice
2 (14.5 ounce) cans fat-free, reduced sodium chicken broth
1 cup water
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons chopped green chile peppers
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, and cook for a few minutes, then add the garlic, and saute for 1 more minutes. Add the carrots, rice, chicken broth, water and salt to the pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, loosely covered for about 20 minutes, or until the carrots are tender. Stir in the green chilies and lime juice. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Puree the soup in small batches, in a blender or food processor. The best way to puree this soup is to place half of the solids into the food processor and add just enough of the broth to liquefy the carrots and rice. Add the rest of the solids, then stir the puree back into the remaining broth. Reheat if necessary. Serve warm.

This soup was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and spicy.

This soup was easy to make and very tasty. I used a combination of sweet and spicy chiles, and the lime juice added a nice tang. I served it with a side of crusty bread, and it was a perfect meal.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out bland and watery. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This soup was a disaster! The flavors were all wrong, and it was way too spicy. I had to throw it out.

I thought this soup was just okay. The flavors were a bit too strong for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less lime juice and chiles.

This soup was easy to make and turned out great! I used a bit less lime juice than the recipe called for, and it was still plenty tangy. I also added a pinch of cumin, which I thought complemented the other flavors nicely.

Amazing! This soup is packed with flavor. The lime and chiles give it a nice kick, and the carrots make it creamy and rich. I served it with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of cilantro, and it was perfect.
