Complete Title; Creamed Chicken and Potato Soup with Avocado and
Capers
Directions: In a heavy 5 quart casserole, combine the chicken,
shinbone and water. The water should cover the chicken by about an
inch; if necessary add more water. Bring to a boil over high heat,
skimming off the scum that rises to the surface. Add the onion, bay
leaf, cumin, thyme, salt and pepper. Reduce the heat to low, cover
and cook for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is tender. Transfer the
chicken to a platter. Pick out and discard the shinbones and onion,
strain the stock through a fine sieve and return it to the casserole.
Remove the skin from the chicken with a small knife or your fingers.
Cut or pull the meat away from the bones; discard the skin and bones.
Cut the chicken meat into strips ¬" wide by 1" to 1«" long. Return
the stock in the casserole to a boil over moderate heat, and drop in
the potatoes. Cover and cook for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes
are soft, then mash them against the sides of the pan with a spoon
until the soup is thick and fairly smooth. Add the corn and chicken,
and simmer, uncovered, for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the
tenderness of the corn. To serve, pour 3 tbs. of cream and 1 tsp of
capers into each deep soup bowl. Ladle the soup into the bowls and
float the sliced avocado on top.
MMMMM
