This soup is chicken rice soup with a kick. The peanut butter adds a nice flavor. You can adjust the quantities of ingredients to taste. Add hot sauce or Srirachi for an extra kick.

How To Make peanut butter soup

Step 1

Combine stock, onion, leek and carrots in at 2 -3 qt. saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer 30 minutes.

Step 2

Remove from heat and puree until smooth or desired consistency. (I use an immersion blender and puree the soup in the pot.)
Step 3

Return soup to stovetop. Add rice, dried chili, and salt. Simmer, covered for 15 - 20 minutes until rice is tender.
Step 4

In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup of soup and the peanut butter. Stir until well blended. Add mixture back in to the soup pot.
Step 5

Cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove the dried chili. Thin with water if soup is too thick. Add pepper to taste.
Step 6

Garnish with chopped peanuts and cilantro, if desired.
