Roasted Pepper Soup and variations

List of Ingredients




2 Yellow and 2 Orange Bell Peppers (MTP's variation: I usually just use red bell peppers, because the yellow and orange ones are priced so exorbitantly)

3 Tablespoons Olive Oil

1 Small Onion, Chopped

3 Garlic Cloves, Minced

1 Medium Potato, Cut Into Large Dice

3 Cups Homemade Chicken Broth (MTP's variation: Let's just say "MTP doesn't do homemade chicken broth and leave it at that...")

Salt & Pepper

Olive Oil To Drizzle


To Garnish:
Use Homemade Garlic Croutons -OR- Grilled Shrimp -OR- Chopped Chives Or Basil

Recipe



Brush the peppers with a little oil and grill until the skins are blackened and blistered. Place in a plastic bag for 15 minutes. Add the rest of the oil in a pot, and sauté the onions and garlic for a few minutes. Add the broth, potato and cook 10 minutes. Remove the core, seeds and peel from the peppers and coarsely chop. (MTP's variation: or skip preparing your own peppers all together and use peeled, roasted red peppers from a jar). Add to the soup mixture and cook another 10 minutes. In a food processor, pulse the mixture until it is smooth. Return to the pot, taste, and season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve warm with your garnish of choice. (I use the croutons)
