GOOD EATS INDIAN SUMMER SOUP

Good Eats Indian Summer Soup image

This soup is served at a local restaurant called Lucky's Cafe. I believe it was originally served at Good Eats, which is no longer in business and seems to have transmogrified itself into Lucky's. The recipe was originally published in the Dallas Morning News in 1996. I'm guessing at the preparation time as I've never made this recipe at home - I've only had the soup in the restaurant. And boy, is it good!!!

Grill the onion, pepper and chicken over medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft and chicken is cooked through.

Melt butter in a large heavy pot over low heat.
Saute garlic and mushrooms in the butter for 5 minutes or until softened.
