Creamy Chicken Poblano Soup is a flavorful and hearty dish that combines tender chicken, roasted poblano peppers, and a rich creamy base, perfect for a comforting meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 poblano peppers, roasted, peeled, and diced
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes (canned or fresh)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  2. Add the diced poblano peppers and chicken to the pot. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream, corn, diced tomatoes, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Simmer for another 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped cilantro and lime juice. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with additional cilantro if desired.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a diced jalapeño or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • To make it lighter, substitute half of the heavy cream with low-fat milk or a dairy-free alternative.
