Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 cups sweet corn (fresh)
1 onion, diced
6 cups chicken broth
1 dried chipotle chile
2 chicken breasts, grilled and sliced
3 roma tomatoes, peeled, seeded and diced
2 small avocados, peeled, seeded and cubed
2 limes, juiced
salt and pepper
1/2 lb fried corn tortilla strips
1 lime, cut into 6 wedges
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped, divided

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or saucepan over medium heat. Add corn and onion; cook until lightly caramelized. Add chicken broth and chipotle chile; let simmer 20 minutes over low heat. Add the tomatoes, avocado, lime juice, 1/4 cup cilantro. Season with salt and pepper. Remove and discard the chipotle chile.
  • Place one-sixth of the tortilla strips in the center of six soup bowls; ladle soup around the crisps. Garnish with remaining cilantro and sour cream. Serve with a wedge of lime.
  • This is the exact recipe -- I prefer to put avacado in just before serving -- so it is not warmed.
