This soup is infused with the flavors of Mexican tacos. It's made with chicken, fire-roasted corn, poblano peppers, tomatoes, and corn tortillas, which help thicken it and give it a velvety texture. When blending the hot soup, leave the lid slightly ajar and cover with a towel to prevent splatter. Serve the pureed soup garnished with chicken pieces, corn, green onions, and sour cream.

1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.

1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a large saucepan, combine the onion, white part of the scallions, poblano garlic, 3/4 cup corn, and olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but not browned, 5-7 minutes. Add the tortillas and cilantro and cook, stirring, for about 1 minute.
  2. Add the chicken broth and tomatoes and bring to a boil. Season the chicken with salt and add it to the pan. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 12-15 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the chicken to a plate.

  3. Pour the soup into a blender in two batches and blend thoroughly until smooth (the liquid will be very hot). Empty the pan and return the soup to the pot; season with salt.
  4. Shred the chicken with your fingers. Dilute the sour cream with 1 tablespoon of water. Microwave the remaining 1/2 cup of corn for about 30 seconds.
  5. Ladle the soup into bowls. Drizzle with sour cream and top with chicken pieces, corn, and green onions.
