Ingredients

• 4 large Poblano peppers
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 medium, chopped Onion
• 3 minced Garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon Cumin
• 4 cups Low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 cup Fat-free Greek yogurt
• 0.25 cup, chopped Fresh cilantro
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 juiced Lime

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your broiler to high. Place the poblano peppers on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.

Step 2

Broil the peppers for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skins are blackened and blistered.

Step 3

Remove the peppers from the oven and place them in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let them steam for 10 minutes.

Step 4

Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and cumin to the pot and cook for an additional 1 minute, or until the garlic is fragrant.

Step 6

Once the peppers are steamed, peel off the blackened skins, remove the seeds, and chop the flesh of the peppers.

Step 7

Add the chopped peppers to the pot along with the low-sodium chicken broth. Bring to a simmer.

Step 8

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it cook for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, work in batches with a stand blender, then return the soup to the pot.

Step 10

Stir in the fat-free Greek yogurt, fresh cilantro, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 11

Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice before serving.

Step 12

Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with additional chopped cilantro if desired, and serve hot.
