Hearty Peruvian Chicken Soup
Ingredients
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut in half
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon seeded, minced serrano chile
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 cup green peas
  • 1 cup corn
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 10 cups chicken broth
  • 4 Yukon Gold potatoes, cut in half
  • 1 cup uncooked white rice
Instructions
1
Prepare the chicken by sprinkling it with salt and pepper to enhance its flavor.
2
Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a substantial, heavy cooking vessel over an elevated heat setting. Introduce the onion, garlic, and serrano chili into the mixture; cook until the onion has become tender and malleable, approximately 1 minute. Incorporate the chicken into the pot and continue to cook for a total of 5 minutes.
3
Add the cilantro, peas, corn, and red pepper to the pot; cook for a brief period of 1 minute. Introduce the chicken broth, potatoes, and rice into the pot; stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, then gradually decrease the heat to a moderate-low setting and allow it to simmer until the chicken has achieved an opaque appearance and the potatoes are tender, approximately 40 minutes.
