Ingredients

Servings
  • pounds  red bell pepper skins and innards removed, roasted
  • 1/2  cup  onion red, chopped
  • cloves  garlic
  • tablespoon  chili flakes spicy
  • teaspoon  cumin
  • salt to taste
  • 1/4  cup  olive oil
  • cup  chicken broth
  • ¼ cup Mexican crema or use heavy cream for a richer version, or sour cream or yogurt
  • cherry tomato for garnish; sliced cherry tomatoes; drizzle olive oil; fresh chopped herbs
  • chili flakes
  • olive oil
  • herbs

Instructions

  1. Remove the charred skins from your roasted red peppers. Toss the peppers into a food processor, along with some onion, garlic, and seasonings. I used a bit of spicy chili flakes, cumin and salt.
  2. Process the mixture until it smooths out, then drizzle in some olive oil and process it. The olive oil will emulsify and thicken up the soup to an almost fluffy texture.
  3. Transfer the sauce to a pot and add in a bit of chicken broth to thin it out. Simmer it for about 10 minutes to let the flavors mingle.
  4. Adjust for salt and strain the soup, if desired. Straining makes for a silkier soup, though it is not necessary. 
  5. Stir in the Mexican crema (or sour cream, yogurt, or heavy cream) and heat it back up for a minute in the same pot. Serve it up into bowls. Garnish and enjoy.

Notes

  • Makes 2-3 bowls. Calories based on 2 bowls.
  • Heat Factor: Mild, though you can heat things up by using hotter Hatch Chile Pepper Types, or other hotter peppers.
