Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup olive oil
1 medium size onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups Italian plum tomatoes, chopped
6 cups chicken broth or water
10 ounces package frozen corn kernels, thawed
4 ounce can chopped green chilies
1/2 cup coarse yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 to 2 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup finely diced green bell pepper
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and saute for about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, tomatoes, broth, corn and chilies. Bring the liquid to a simmer then cover the pan and cook gently over low heat for 15 minutes. Meanwhile rinse and mince the cilantro.
  • While whisking constantly, slowly drizzle the cornmeal into the simmering soup, Simmer gently uncovered until thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir the bottom on occasion to make sure the cornmeal isn't sticking.
  • Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper. Right before serving stir in the lime juice. Portion out and garnish if you wish with cheddar cheese, cilantro and chopped green bell pepper.
  • VARIATION -You can enrich it with cubed smoked ham or roasted pork

This soup is a great way to use up leftover polenta. I had some polenta that was a few days old and it worked perfectly in this soup.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup was bland and watery. I won't be making this again.

This soup was easy to make and turned out great! I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and it was still very flavorful. I also added some shredded chicken to the soup and it was a hit with my family.
