It is outstanding and always a big hit. I put a dollop of sour cream and fresh chives in the center before serving.

Would make a nice first course for a dinner party.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter 1 rib celery, chopped 1 small carrot, chopped 1/2 small onion, chopped (1/2 cup) 1 small garlic clove, minced 3 medium red bell peppers, ribs and seeds removed, and cut into 1-inch chunks (5 cups) 1 can (14.5 ounces) reduced-sodium chicken broth 1 bay leaf 1/2 cup heavy cream 1 pinch sugar Coarse salt and ground pepper 2 tablespoons roughly chopped chives, for garnish

Directions

In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add celery, carrot, onion, and garlic; cook until onion is opaque and carrot is crisp/tender, about 10 minutes.

Add peppers, broth, 2 cups water, and bay leaf; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until peppers are very tender, about 15 minutes.

Remove bay leaf; puree soup in batches in blender. Return to pot; add cream and sugar. Season with salt and pepper. If necessary, gently reheat before serving, and garnish with chives.
