Looking for a luxurious and delicious soup recipe? This Creamy Roasted Red Pepper and Goat Cheese Soup is sure to impress! Made with roasted red peppers, creamy goat cheese, and cream, this indulgent soup is perfect for a special occasion or a cozy night in.
Ingredients:
- 3 large red bell peppers
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 4 ounces goat cheese
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Cut the red bell peppers in half and remove the stem and seeds. Place the peppers on a baking sheet, cut-side down, and brush with olive oil. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the peppers are charred and tender. Remove from the oven and let cool.
- In a large pot, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and cook until softened.
- Add the roasted red peppers and chicken or vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a simmer and let cook for 15-20 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. (Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender and puree in batches.)
- Return the pot to the heat and add the goat cheese and heavy cream. Stir until the cheese is melted and the soup is hot. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the Creamy Roasted Red Pepper and Goat Cheese Soup hot, garnished with a dollop of goat cheese and a sprinkle of chopped herbs. Enjoy this indulgent and flavorful soup on a chilly day or as a special treat for yourself or your loved ones.
