This Indian-inspired chicken soup is a great new way to enjoy Manischewitz® Chicken Broth. The surprising addition of almonds provides a lovely, creamy texture. Enjoy this soup with delicious toasted Tam Tams™ Snack Crackers on the side.

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 medium leek, washed and chopped
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ginger powder
• 3/4 cup ground almonds with skins
• 2 teaspoons Manischewitz® Kosher Salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 carrot, sliced
• 1/2 cup frozen peas
• 3 chicken cutlets, cubed
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2 cups Manischewitz® Chicken Broth
• 1 cup light coconut milk or non-dairy creamer
• Fresh parsley for garnish

Preparation:

In a small soup pot over medium-high heat, sauté the chopped leek in olive oil. Add the ginger powder and cook until onion starts turning brown, about 4-6 minutes.

Reduce the heat to medium and add the ground almonds, salt, pepper, carrot, peas and chicken.

Cook, stirring constantly, for about 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked thoroughly. Add the chopped fresh cilantro. Remove from heat and cool slightly.

Transfer soup into a food processor and blend. Pour in the Manischewitz® Chicken Broth and blend for an additional 30 seconds. Return soup back to the pot and add the coconut milk. Bring to a low boil and remove from heat.

Serve hot. Garnish with parsley.
