Chorizo Green Chili Soup Recipes

CHORIZO CHILI

Steps:

• Combine first 9 ingredients in a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker. Cook, covered, on low 5-6 hours or until flavors are blended. Serve with avocado, sour cream and cilantro.

CHORIZO-GREEN CHILE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and celery, season with salt and cook, stirring, until softened, about 8 minutes. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking up the meat, until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook 1 to 2 more minutes. Add the sage and rosemary and cook 1 more minute, then remove from the heat.
• Combine the cornbread, chiles and sausage mixture in a large bowl. Add 3 cups chicken stock and toss with your hands until the bread is very moist, adding up to 1 more cup stock if needed. Season with salt. Transfer to a 3-quart baking dish and bake until the stuffing is hot throughout and golden brown on top, 30 to 35 minutes.

PATRICIA'S GREEN CHILE SOUP

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Saute onion until transparent. Stir in the garlic, green chiles, chicken meat, and cumin. Cook for one minute to blend the flavors. Stir in the cream of chicken soup and half-and-half. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Ladle hot soup into bowls. Top with cheese and a dollop of sour cream.

GREEN CHILI TOMATO SOUP

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine the soup, milk and chilies until blended. Cook and stir over medium heat until heated through. Sprinkle with cheese.

CHORIZO GREEN CHILI SOUP

Steps:

• Brown the chorizo. Dice chicken and add to the chorizo grease and cook until done. Place in crock pot.
• Skin and dice the chilis. Dice the onion, garlic, and serrano peppers. Add to crock pot.
• Add chicken broth and spices.
• Cook on low for 4-6 hours.
• Meanwhile shred the pepper jack (although any cheese will work).
• About one hour before serving, remove the cinnamon stick and then add the cream cheese and pepper jack. Allow it to slowly melt and stir it inches It works best if the cream cheese is room temperature. You can serve it as soon as the cheeses are fully mixed in and melted.
• Serve with sour cream and diced tomatoes.

SMOKY CHORIZO CHILI

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Crumble in the chorizo. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up the chorizo with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 3 minutes. Add the red onion and bell peppers and cook until they begin to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic, jalapeno, ancho powder, cumin, smoked paprika and oregano. Cook and stir to coat the meat and vegetables in the spices, about 1 minute.
• Add the tomatoes, beef broth and 2 cups water. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, then stir in the black beans and butternut squash. Simmer, uncovered, until the chili is thick and flavorful and the veggies are tender, 30 to 45 minutes.
• Serve the chili with bowls of the toppings on the side for passing at the table.

CREAMY GREEN CHILI AND CHEESE SOUP

Steps:

• Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and oregano; cook for 10 minutes.
• Add chicken broth, potatoes and hot pepper sauce; bring to a boil.
• Cook for 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
• Add green chiles, cream and cheese.
• Heat until cheese is melted.

FRESH GREEN CHORIZO

Steps:

• Place the ground pork in a large bowl. Set a cast-iron skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes. Add black peppercorns, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, oregano, bay leaf and cloves and toast briefly until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Remove from the heat, transfer to a spice grinder and grind to a fine powder. Add to the bowl with the ground pork.
• Return the skillet to a high flame and heat for 5 minutes. Add garlic cloves, Serrano and poblano chiles and roast, turning them from time to time until softened slightly and blackened in spots, about 6 to 12 minutes, removing the pieces as they finish cooking. Set aside to cool at room temperature. Once garlic cloves are cool enough to handle, peel them and discard the skin. Wearing gloves if possible, remove the stems and seeds from the Serrano chiles. Remove the stems and seeds from the poblano chile, and peel away the charred skin.
• In a blender, purée the roasted garlic cloves, Serrano and poblano chiles along with the sherry vinegar, parsley and kosher salt until smooth. Transfer to the bowl with the ground pork and spices.
• Mix the chorizo with your (preferably gloved) hands until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a container and refrigerate until ready to use, or for up to 3 days. The chorizo can also be frozen in an airtight bag for up to 1 month.

CREAMY CHORIZO AND CHICKEN SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large pot over high heat, then add the butter. Stir in chicken and season with Worcestershire sauce, garlic salt, and pepper. Cook the chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center, then stir in the garlic. Place chicken onto a plate and set aside.
• Cook the chorizo until it becomes a dark golden brown, breaking up the large pieces, using the same pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the chicken stock, tomatoes, and reserved chicken with juices. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in heavy cream and simmer for another 5 minutes. Season with salt. Serve soup garnished with Monterey Jack cheese, Parmesan cheese, and a dollop of sour cream.

GREEN SOUP WITH CRISPY CHORIZO

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a casserole or saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and fry gently for 10 mins until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and fry for 1 min. Stir through the potatoes and stock, cover and cook for 15 mins. Add the spinach and kale, and cook for a further 5-10 mins or until wilted. Use a hand blender to blitz everything until smooth, stir in the double cream and lemon juice, and season to taste.
• Heat a small frying pan over a medium heat and fry the chopped chorizo until crispy. Ladle the soup into bowls. Top with the chorizo, a drizzle of chorizo oil from the pan and a good grinding of black pepper. Finish with a drizzle of cream.
