2 tablespoons olive oil
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
4 roasted red peppers, chopped
2 cans (14.5 ounces each) reduced sodium chicken broth,
plus 1/2 can water
2/3 cup heavy cream
Salt and black pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1. Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add
celery, onion, and garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally,
about 8 minutes, until vegetables are softened.
2. Add roasted peppers and stock. Bring to a boil; lower
heat and simmer 5 minutes. Pure soup in batches in a
blender or food processor until smooth. Return soup to
saucepan; stir in cream. Heat gently. Add salt and
pepper to taste. Sprinkle with Parmesan before serving.
A little smoke flavor makes a big impact when its diffused
through a medium of chicken broth and cream. Home-roasted
peppers taste best, but jarred peppers (rinsed and patted dry)
can be used in a pinch. Atkins - Roasted Red Pepper Soup
