A wonderful soup recipe from "The Pressure Cooker Cookbook" by Toula Patsalis. Can be made without a pressure cooker but cooking time will be longer.

Time 35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/4 lb bacon or 1/4 lb turkey bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup olive oil
1 large onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, slivered
2 chicken breasts (with or without bone)
16 ounces crushed tomatoes
1/4 cup salsa
1 bell pepper, coarsely chopped (green, red, yellow or orange)
2 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (such as Tabasco)
16 ounces whole kernel corn
4 -6 ounces carrots
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon sherry wine
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons butter substitute, softened
1 cup half-and-half

Steps:

  • In a pressure cooker, saute bacon until crisp.
  • Add oil, onion, garlic and chicken. Saute 3 minutes.
  • Stir in tomatoes, salsa, peppers, carrots, chicken broth, salt, red pepper flakes and hot pepper sauce.
  • Close pressure cooker and heat on high to develop maximum pressure. Reduce heat to maintain pressure and cook 6 minutes, then release pressure. Remove the chicken and cut it into bite-size pieces.
  • Add chicken, corn, cilantro and sherry to the soup. Bring to a simmer and cook 2 minutes. Combine flour and butter into a paste, then add it one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the soup is creamy. Cook 1 more minute. Add half-and-half and mix thoroughly.
  • If not using a pressure cooker, you will need to cook for a longer time, though I have not tested the recipe this way.

Just made this soup and it turned out great! I used a rotisserie chicken and it made the soup extra flavorful. I also added some chopped cilantro and avocado on top. Yum!
