Ingredients
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can fire roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 medium onion, quartered (yellow or white)
- 2 cloves garlic
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- 6 cups broth, divided (chicken or vegetable)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil divided
- 8 ounces fideo pasta
- 1 bouillon cube (about 2 teaspoons), chicken or vegetable, optional
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
Instructions
- Add the tomatoes, onion, garlic, cumin, and 1 cup of the chicken broth to a large blender. Blend until completely smooth.
- Strain the blended tomato sauce through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl to remove any solids. Set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Stir in the fideo pasta and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta begins to light brown and blister.
- Pour in the blended tomato sauce and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add in the remaining 5 cups of chicken broth, chicken bouillon (if using), and salt. Stir to combine and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low and cook for 10 more minutes or until the pasta is tender and cooked through.
- Taste and adjust salt if necessary. Serve immediately.
