Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion diced
- 4 medium potatoes diced, white
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 4 oz Hatch green chiles diced (See Note 1, can
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tsp oregano or traditional oregano, dried, Mexican
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 4 ears sweet corn kernels sliced off (See Note 2)
- 1 cup pea fresh or frozen
- 6 ounces cotija cheese cubed (See Note 3)
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups chicken shredded
- black pepper to taste, fresh cracked
Instructions
- Set a large stock pot (at least 5 quarts) over medium-high heat and add olive oil. When oil is hot, add onion and cook until translucent, 6 minutes.
- Add the potatoes and salt. Cook until the edges of the potatoes are beginning to soften and turn a golden brown, about another 5 minutes.
- Add the green chiles, garlic, oregano, and crushed red pepper flakes. Cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds, then add the stock to the pan and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer the soup until the potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Add the corn kernels, peas, cheese, milk and shredded chicken to the soup. Stir and bring back to a simmer for another 5 minutes. Taste and season with black pepper and additional salt, as needed.
Notes
- If you can't find canned Hatch green chiles other substitutes can be any mild green chile: Green Bell Peppers, Anaheim Peppers, Poblano Peppers.
- Using fresh sweet corn adds corn milk to the broth for a nuanced flavor. 3 cups frozen corn can be substituted if fresh is unavailable though.
- Mexican Cotija cheese is a moister, fattier, and less salty version of feta. Queso fresco is a good substitute, if needed.
