I keep saying a new favorite soup, but this certainly became a new favorite the minute I tried it. All those summer BBQ tastes, the sauce, chicken, sweet corn, onions... all with a delicious complex broth. I served this night of Halloween. We sit at the bottom of our drive way along with a couple of other neighbors and make a small event of handing out candy. This soup kept the chill out. The little extra heat from Cajun SPices, BBQ sauce and a few drops of hot sauce kept us toasty warm inside.If I were serving this inside I would have added a dollop of Sour Cream. Next time I may add a few more vegetables (Green Peppers, Celery). But as is, it was fantastic. Hearty warming and delicious. The BBQ sauce flavored broth was exactly what I wanted...

This soup looks very tasty! Thanks for the recipe...what did you serve it with~(pictured on the plate)?
ReplyDeleteThis soup sounds good and I have a bunch of smoked chicken in the freezer.
ReplyDeleteIf you like the regular Durkee or French's fried onion rings, try a brand called something like Loeb's Onion Crunch. They are smaller pieces but so much crispier and tastier. I don't know what they do different but they are my favorite, great for sprinkling on soups, salads and burgers.
