Wanting to make a nice soup, I thought about the ingredients I had in my fridge. I chose to make a chicken, chile and rice soup. I started with the simple ingredients

• 3 Roasted Pasilla chiles, diced
• 5 pcs Garlic, diced
• 1/2 Onion, diced
• 1 Yellow Bell Pepper (raw), Diced
• 2 cups of chicken stock
• 4 cups of water
• 1/4 cup tomatillo sauce, chile verde sauce
• 1/2 cup wild rice
• pre-cooked chicken in sauce

I started with a little olive oil, added the garlic, onion and yellow peppers. Then the roasted pasilla chiles, cook for a few minutes then add chicken stock and water followed by your green tomatillo sauce. Let boil and add rice.

Once the rice is cooked, add the chicken and reduce to heat. Let cook for a couple minutes until flavors combine.

Makes 10 cups of soup.
