Chicken Pumpkin Soup Recipes

Fall always brings pumpkin and squash to mind. This is a very simple soup that can be made without meat if you prefer.  I love pumpkin or squash in soups.

Ingredients:

•     1 ½ lbs boneless skinless chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces
•     ½ teaspoon salt
•     ¼ teaspoon black pepper
•     1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
•     1 sliced onion
•     1 red bell pepper, chopped
•     1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
•     1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
•     1 tablespoon curry powder
•     4 garlic cloves, minced
•     6 cups cubed fresh pumpkin or 6 cups other winter squash, peeled
•     1 can chicken broth
•     1 can coconut milk
•     ¼ cup cilantro, chopped

Cooking Process:

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add half of the chicken and sauté for 8 minutes or until browned. Remove chicken from pot and repeat procedure with 1 teaspoon oil and remaining chicken; remove from pot and set aside.

Heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, bell pepper, ginger, jalapeno and curry powder. Sauté for 5 minutes. Stir in pumpkin, broth, and coconut milk; bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes or until pumpkin is tender. Return chicken to pot; cook 10 minutes.  Garnish with cilantro. Serve over rice.
