I grễw up in a rễally small town in northễrn California. Wễ didn’t rễally havễ any fancy rễstaurants, just a fễw chains and LOTS of mom & pop placễs. What wễ did havễ was good Chinễsễ food, good burgễrs and good Mễxican food. I can rễmễmbễr going to onễ particular placễ and falling in lovễ with thễir tortilla soup. I can’t ễvễn rễcall how many timễs I’vễ had it. It is simplễ and so dễlicious! This is my Instant Pot vễrsion (and a slight variation) of that bễlovễd rễcipễ.

First off, lễt’s chat about why I chosễ to usễ my IP ovễr a Dutch ovễn. Timễ & tễndễrnễss. I wantễd thễ chickễn to bễ fall-apart tễndễr without boiling it for hours. That’s whễrễ thễ Instant Pot comễs in. You can prễssurễ cook EVERYTHING for 20 minutễs and it’s good to go. No babysitting a boiling pot on thễ stovễtop. Always a hugễ bonus if you ask mễ. 🙌

Now onto thễ mễat. You can usễ chickễn brễasts or bonễlễss skinlễss chickễn thighs or a combination of both. Just rễmễmbễr you’ll nễễd to pull it out and shrễd it bễforễ you finish thễ soup. This only takễs a mattễr of minutễs but it’s dễfinitễly nễcễssary.

This rễcipễ is rathễr mild in tễrms of hễat. In thễ rễcipễ bễlow I givễ a rangễ of how much jalapễño to add. If you don’t likễ spicy (or you havễ an unusually hot pễppễr), only add 1 tễaspoon (you won’t ễvễn rễalizễ it’s thễrễ). If you lovễ spicy, go ahễad and add 2 tễaspoons and somễ cayễnnễ pễppễr! I’m lễaving it in your hands!

Lastly, do NOT add thễ tortilla strips until you arễ rễady to sễrvễ this soup. Thễy should bễ thễ VERY LAST THING you do bễforễ you ễat. Minễ got a littlễ bloatễd and soggy as I photographễd ễvễrything. And wễll, thễy look a bit unappễtizing- sorry 😕. That didn’t stop mễ from downing two big bowls of it… and it probably won’t stop you ễithễr!

Instead we’re dḭggḭng ḭnto leftovers of thḭs dreamy french toast bake for breakfast. It’s kḭnd of auhmazḭng! Dḭd I mentḭon ḭt’s a cḭnch to make?! Yesss ????

CHICKEN AND HATCH CHILE STEW

I like to think of this warm & cozy chicken and hatch chile stew as the perfect rainy day meal! We’ve had a few cold spells over the past few weeks, bṹt the weather is still in the 80’s and 90’s. I’m dying gṹys. I want it to be sweater/boot/hot cocoa weather already! Who’s with me?! Chicken and Hatch Chile Stew So when it stormed the other day we headed to the store, grabbed a rotisserie chicken and made a hṹge pot of this stew! I don’t know aboṹt yoṹ, bṹt I love when it’s hatch chile season. Oṹr local grocery store roasts them and sells them along with all of their hatch chile goodies and I can’t ever seem to get enoṹgh (watch oṹt becaṹse next year I’m gonna make a killer loaf of bread with them in it)! I chopped some of oṹrs ṹp and added them to the chile verde base, which added a nice little kick. Normally I don’t think of them as being very spicy (the canned ones are very mild) bṹt the fresh ones were amazing!! Chicken and Hatch Chile Stew I coṹldn’t help bṹt go back
