Rinse chicken breasts and pat dry with paper towel.With your finger, on the small side of the breast, work your finger under the skin and separate it from the meat.

3 Garlic cloves; pressed
1 ts Dried thyme
3 c Cubed potatoes
1 c Chopped green beans
1 Red bell pepper; chopped
2 c Cubed fresh tomatoes
3 c Vegetable stock
1 cn (13-ounce) artichoke hearts;
1/2 c Pitted black olives; halved,
1 pn Saffron
1/4 c Fresh lemon juice
1/4 c Chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
I made these two recipes over the weekend – theyre from Sundays at Moosewood cookbook, with appropriate changes to make them. I really like exotic recipes so I enjoy this cookbook a lot – my husband just loves these 2 recipes – he keeps teasing me that all they need to be perfect is some chunks of lamb! Anyway, here they are: Sate the onions and garlic in your favorite sauteeing medium until onions are translucent. Add the thyme, potatoes, green beans, bell pepper, and tomatoes and cook on medium-high heat for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the vegetable stock and the brine from the artichokes and simmer, covered, until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in the halved artichoke hearts, the black olives (if you use them), and a pinch of saffron. Continue to simmer gently for another 5 to 10 minutes. Add the lemon juice, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Serve with bread or on couscous (also suggests to sprinkle with chopped almonds).

Chicken Tortilla Soup ala Steve recipe – BigOven.com

8 Servings
Chicken Mexican
Kid Friendly Winter Spring Advance Soup Main Dish Mexican Chicken Dinner Lunch Comforting
8 cups Chicken stock
2 whole Onions diced
3 whole Garlic cloves crushed
1 1/2 tablespoon Chili powder
1 large can Crushed Tomatoes
1 whole Lime
1 teaspoon Cumin
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1/4 teaspoon Cayenne or more to taste
1 cup Vegetable oil
12 whole Corn tortillas
2 cups Chicken cooked and torn or cubed into 1/2″ cubes
— Optional Add-Ons –
Cilantro
Sour cream
Corn kernels
Black beans
Avocado
In a large stockpot, heat 3 tablespoons of oil to medium-high heat. Add crushed garlic and chopped onions, and stir until onions just start to brown. Add the can of crushed tomatoes, cumin, cayenne pepper, chili powder, salt, pepper, and half of the lime juice. Turn up the heat until it bubbles, stirring constantly, then gradually stir in chicken stock. Turn down to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Add diced chicken. (Optionally add black beans or fresh corn kernels).
To make the tortilla crisps, julienne 12 corn tortillas into narrow, uniform strips. In a saucepan, bring 1 cup of vegetable oil up to medium-high heat (takes about 5 minutes to come up to temperature — be sure to test the heat of the oil by placing a corn tortilla bit into the oil — it should bubble immediately). Deep-fry these tortilla strips in batches (2 mins or so — do not let them turn a dark brown) — transfer to paper towel to dry. They should be crispy.
When ready to serve, plate the soup, then top with a mound of the tortilla strips. Optionally add avocado, sour cream, cheese, fresh corn kernels.
Squeeze fresh lime juice into each bowl at the table.
Soup itself can be made ahead, but make the corn tortilla strips fresh, just prior to serving… it’s worth it.
