A Bite of Reality

A bite-at-a-time of advice, wry humor and good-natured mockery, as well as the best bytes of recipes we can cook up.

Green Chili Chicken Soup

First posted Jan 10, 2011 -- Served most recently last night.  I halved the batch and it still made mucho grande.



Once upon a time, my husband ate a delicious soup in an airport in Albuquerque. He purchased the recipe and brought home a tiny bag of ingredients. We loved it and served it up to friends, until the bag was empty. One day I pulled out the recipe, looked at the enclosed ingredients and concluded that the bag was ... chicken bouillon.

And we've mixed it up ourselves since then. It's perfect for this season. Enjoy!

2 cups cooked chicken meat
2 cans chopped green chilis  (wow, spicy hot)
3 cups chopped canned tomatoes
1/4 cup chicken base (2-3 T. condensed GF chicken bouillon)
1 tablespoon garlic (I used minced)
6 potatoes with skins (red or yukon gold) diced
2 quarts water

I bring all ingredients to boil and simmer until potatoes are soft. I serve it with cheese, chips, guacamole and sour cream/plain yogurt.

Mucho Caliente? I make it with one can of chilis and add on from there.
