Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds poblano chilies*
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1 1/2 cups chopped white onion
1 garlic clove, chopped
5 cups chicken stock or canned low-salt chicken broth
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
1/4 cup (or more) whipping cream
*Fresh green chilies, often called pasillas, available at Latin American markets and some supermarkets

Steps:

  • Char chilies over gas flame or in broiler until blackened on all sides. Enclose in paper bag. Let stand 10 minutes to steam. Peel, seed and chop poblano chilies.
  • Melt butter in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add chilies and sauté 1 minute. Add stock and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until chilies are very tender, about 10 minutes. Mix in cilantro, parsley and mint. Working in batches, puree soup in blender. Return soup to pot. Mix in 1/4 cup cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add more cream if soup is very spicy. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and chill. Bring to simmer before serving.)

I'm not a big fan of cream soups, but this one was really good. The poblano peppers added a nice smoky flavor and the soup was very creamy and flavorful. I would definitely recommend it.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover roasted poblanos. It's also a great soup to make ahead of time. I like to make a big batch on the weekend and then eat it for lunch or dinner throughout the week.

This soup was a waste of time and money. It was bland and flavorless. I would not recommend it to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly and my soup turned out watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices to give it more flavor.

I had a hard time finding poblano peppers at my local grocery store. I ended up using green bell peppers instead. The soup still turned out good, but it didn't have the same smoky flavor.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less poblano peppers if you don't like spicy food.

This soup is delicious! I love the smoky flavor of the roasted poblanos. I also like that it's not too spicy. It's the perfect soup for a cold winter day.

I love this soup! It's so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I've made it for parties, potlucks, and even just for a simple weeknight dinner. It's always a hit.

This roasted poblano cream soup was a hit with my family! The poblano peppers added a smoky and slightly spicy flavor that was perfectly balanced by the creamy soup. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly.
