Cook this recipe
- corn tortillas-6 each
- low-sodium vegetable broth-4 cups
- poblano peppers-2 medium
- yellow onion-1 medium
- garlic-3 cloves
- frozen corn-2 cups
- canned black beans-30 oz
- olive oil-2 tablespoons
- canned crushed tomatoes-28 oz
- ground cumin-1 teaspoon
- fine salt-1 teaspoon
Preheat the oven to 400°F, cut tortillas into strips, dice poblanos and onion, mince garlic and rinse and drain beans. Keep all tomato juices for the soup.
Keep knife tips pointed down and fingers tucked while cutting vegetables and tortilla strips.
Toss tortilla strips with half the oil and bake in a single layer until crisp and lightly browned, about 8–10 minutes. Use an 18-by-13-inch rimmed sheet, turn once and watch closely; cool on the pan.
Use oven mitts when handling the hot baking sheet.
Cook onion and poblanos in the remaining oil over medium heat until softened, about 6–8 minutes. Use a 6-quart soup pot and stir often.
Add vegetables carefully to the hot oil to reduce splatter.
Stir in the garlic and cumin and cook for 30 seconds until the spices are toasty and aromatic.
Stir in tomatoes, broth, beans, corn and salt until evenly distributed.
Bring to a boil, then simmer 15–20 minutes until poblanos are tender and corn completes its package cooking requirements. Maintain a gentle simmer and check the corn reaches 165°F when required by its package.
Stir and simmer gently to avoid splashes from the hot tomato broth.
Divide the soup evenly and add crisp tortilla strips just before eating. Let each bowl cool to a comfortable eating temperature.
Let the soup cool briefly before serving, as tomato-based broth can stay very hot.
