Ingredients: 1/2 cup butter
1 bunch green onions, chopped
3-4 stalks of celery, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 bell pepper, diced
1 1/2 cups chicken stock (or use canned)
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 can Rotelle tomatoes and chili peppers
2 teaspoons cumin
1 bottle low carb beer
1 block cream cheese, cut up
3 cups cooked diced chicken (leftover grilled chicken is great)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons masa (fine corn meal, look in the Latin foods or flour sections of your market)
Instructions: In a heavy soup pot, sauté the onions, celery and garlic in the butter. Add the bell pepper, chicken broth, cream, Rotelle, cumin and beer and allow to come to a boil. Turn down the heat and allow to simmer for ten minutes. Add the cream cheese, chicken, Parmesan and masa and continue simmering until thick, about 20 minutes. Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream or sprinkling of grated cheese.
