Roasted Red Pepper Tomato Soup with Grilled Chicken Dippers for Two
A zesty roasted red pepper tomato soup for two with grilled chicken skewers for dipping!
Equipment
- 1 10-12" high sided oven safe skillet
- 1 kitchen knife
- Measuring cups and spoons
- 1 blender
- 1 grill pan
- 4 wooden skewers
Ingredients
- 3 red bell peppers stems and core removed, roughly chopped
- 3 roma tomatoes cored and halved
- 1 small yellow onion peeled and quartered. 1/2 medium yellow onion will also work.
- 4 cloves garlic peeled
- 1 teaspoon salt plus more to taste
- 1 teaspoon black pepper plus more to taste
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes ½ teaspoon if you like it spicy
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 oz boneless skinless chicken tenderloins
- 2 cups chicken stock
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F
- Add olive oil and the prepared tomatoes, red bell peppers, garlic and yellow onion to the high sided oven safe skillet. Add the crushed red pepper flakes and one 1/2 teaspoon each of the salt and black pepper and toss to evenly coat all ingredients.
- Place the skillet in the oven and roast at 400°F for 40 minutes.
- While the soup ingredients are roasting, skewer your chicken tenderloins and season both sides with remaining salt and pepper.
- Heat a grill pan over medium high heat and spray with non-stick spray. Once the pan is hot, grill the chicken skewers for 4-5 minutes a side, until the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Once the soup ingredients finish roasting, add the entire contents of the pan to your blender, followed by 2 cups of chicken stock and blend. Since you're using hot ingredients, make sure you do not fill your blender over 1/2 full.
- Once blended to your desired consistency (this soup will be more rustic in texture because we left the skins on the veggies) return to the high sided skillet and heat over medium heat until the soup comes to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and allow to simmer for at least 15 minutes.
- Taste, adjust for seasoning adding ¼ teaspoon salt and/or pepper until you have the perfect level of seasoning for your tastes. Serve with the chicken skewers for dipping and enjoy!
