Southwest Corn And Bean Soup
Perfect for the busy cook! This recipe goes together very quickly,
and the results are a delicious soup with a definite homemade taste.
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 teaspoon chili powder
6 cups chicken broth
1 24-ounce jar Randall Pinto Beans, drained
1 10-ounce package frozen whole kernel corn
1 4-ounce can chopped mild green chilies
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce, (or to taste)
1 cup sour cream
Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
Melt the butter in a large pot. Add the chili powder and sauté, stirring, for 2 minutes.
Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil.
Add the Randall Pinto Beans, corn and chilies. Bring back to boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
Season to taste with hot sauce.
Serve hot with a large spoonful of sour cream spooned on top. (If desired, sprinkle some chopped fresh cilantro over the sour cream.)
Allow to rest, covered, for 10 minutes. Toss in the parsley and serve. Pass the hot sauce for a spicier dish.
