  • 2 green onions chopped finely
  • 2 tbsp cilantro chopped, fresh
  • 1 tsp cumin ground
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • ½ tsp oregano
  • ½ tsp Coriander
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • salt to taste, sea salt and freshly ground
  • black pepper to taste, sea salt and freshly ground
  • 2 corn tostada shells pulsed in a food processor until crumbled, crisp
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Soup:

  • 2 cups salsa see link above for recipe, fresh
  • 2 chipotle peppers in their adobo sauce
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 quart chicken stock
  • salt to taste, sea salt and freshly cracked
  • black pepper to taste, sea salt and freshly cracked

Serving:

  • 1 avocado diced

Instructions

  1. Make the meatballs by combining the ground turkey, green onion, cilantro, cumin, chili powder, oregano, coriander, garlic, tostada shells, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper, to taste, in a bowl. Using your hands, roll them into little balls.
  2. Cook the meatballs by heating the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and brown all over but not completely cooked through, about 4 minutes. Set them aside.
  3. Make the soup by blending the salsa and chipotle peppers in a blender or food processor. Pulse until smooth and well combined.
  4. In the Dutch oven, bloom the tomato paste for about a minute by stirring it with a wooden spoon.
  5. Add the salsa mixture and the chicken stock. Bring to a boil, add the meatballs, lower the heat, and simmer for about 20-30 minutes. Taste and season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste.
  6. Serve the soup by ladling it into bowls then top with freshly diced avocado, cotija cheese, and fresh cilantro. Serve immediately. Enjoy.
