CHICKEN SOPA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Put the chicken into a mixing bowl. Add the chicken soup, mushroom soup, green chiles and broth. Mix well.
• In a 9x13 inch baking dish place a layer of corn tortillas to cover the bottom, then a layer of the chicken mixture, then a layer of cheese. Continue to layer, like you would lasagna, until all of the chicken mixture is gone. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and brown. Let cool and serve.

JIMTOWN CHICKEN SOPA

Steps:

• Over an open flame gas burner or under a preheated broiler, roast the poblanos, turning them occasionally, until the skins are lightly but evenly charred. Steam the poblanos until cool in a closed paper bag. Rub away the burned skins, slit the poblanos open along one side and discard the seeds. Open each poblano out flat.
• In a small, heavy skillet over low heat, toast the oregano, stirring often, until it is fragrant and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove and cool.
• In a medium skillet over moderate heat, warm 3 tablespoons oil. Add the onions, garlic, cumin and cooled oregano. Cover and cook, stirring once or twice, until almost tender, about 10 minutes. Add the stock, salsa verde, chiles and 2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a simmer, then lower the heat, partially cover, and cook, stirring once or twice, until slightly thickened, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool. Stir in the cilantro. Set aside 4 cups of this sauce. In a medium bowl, stir the remaining sauce into the chicken.
• In a medium skillet, warm 1 cup oil. When it is hot but not smoking, fry the tortillas, 1 at a time, turning them once with tongs, until they are flexible; do not allow them to become crisp. Drain the tortillas on paper towels.
• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Lightly coat a rectangular 9 by 13-inch glass baking dish, or any attractive ovenproof serving dish, with nonstick spray or canola oil.
• Arrange 8 of the tortillas in an overlapping layer in the bottom of the dish. Spread half the chicken mixture evenly over the tortilla layer. Top with 8 more tortillas, overlapping them as necessary. Sprinkle 1/2 the Monterey Jack and 1/2 the Cheddar over the tortillas. Spread the remaining chicken mixture over the cheese. Arrange the poblanos in a layer over the chicken, overlapping them if necessary. Spread the reserved 4 cups sauce over the poblanos. Arrange the remaining 8 tortillas over the sauce. With a spatula, spread the sour cream over the tortillas. Top with the remaining Jack and Cheddar cheeses.
• Bake until the top is lightly browned and the sopa is bubbling, about 45 minutes.
• Let rest on a rack about 5 minutes before serving. Serve the sopa hot, topping each portion with a dollop of sour cream and a sprig of cilantro, if desired.
• Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Add the tomatillos and serranos, lower the heat, and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and cool in ice water. Core the tomatillos.
• In a blender, combine the tomatillos, half of the cilantro leaves, serranos, onions, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Puree on low speed for 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the blender jar and puree again until smooth.
• Transfer to a bowl. Finely chop the remaining 3/4 cup cilantro. Stir the cilantro and green onions into the salsa. Adjust the seasoning, adding salt to taste and stirring in up to 1 teaspoon sugar, to taste, if the salsa seems bitter. Use immediately, or refrigerate for up to 3 days.

CREAMY CHICKEN SOPAS

Steps:

• Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat so the broth simmers.
• Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper, add to the broth and poach until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the chicken to cool in the broth for 5 minutes. Remove the chicken and shred it into bite-size pieces with your fingers or 2 forks. Reserve the chicken and broth separately.
• Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Stir in the carrots, celery and onions and cook until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the ham and garlic and cook until the garlic is slightly softened, about 1 minute. Stir in the fish sauce. Continue cooking until the flavors meld, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Stir in the reserved chicken broth plus 2 cups water and bring to a boil. Add the macaroni and reduce the heat so the soup simmers. Cook, stirring frequently, until the macaroni is tender, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the cream of chicken soup until smooth. Add the shredded chicken and cook until heated through. Serve garnished with scallions.
