    List of Ingredients




    4 ears corn (2 1/2 lb. total), husked, silks removed
    1 pound red bell peppers, rinsed, stemmed, seeded, and halved lengthwise
    2 green onions, white and pale green parts only, rinsed and root ends trimmed
    1 fresh jalapeno chile, rinsed, stemmed, seeded, and halved
    lengthwise About 2 teaspoons olive oil
    2 cans (14.5 oz. each) chicken broth
    1/4 cup sour cream
    2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 tablespoon lime juice Salt and pepper
    1 avocado (6 oz.)

    Recipe



    1. Rub corn, peppers, green onions, and jalapeno lightly with oil. Place on a grill over a bed of hot coals or high heat on a gas grill (you can hold your hand at grill level only 2 to 3 seconds); close lid on gas grill. Cook, turning occasionally, until slightly charred, about 5 minutes total for green onions and jalapeno, 10 to 12 minutes total for other vegetables. Let cool. Cut corn kernels from cobs; chop peppers, green onions, and jalapeno.

    2. In a blender, whirl 1/2 the broth and corn and the sour cream, cilantro, cumin, green onions, and jalapeno until smooth. Pour into a bowl. Stir in remaining broth and corn, the lime juice and peppers, and salt and pepper to taste. Chill until cold, 1 hour or up to 1 day. Just before serving, pit, peel, and dice avocado; ladle soup into bowls and top with avocado.
