Potato-leek Soup With Grilled Chicken

God also places a man in a relationship with a woman so that she will grow spiritually within the safe confines of his loving care. This is masculine love, as defined by God: to nurture and to protect. Men are to show a protective and nurturing concern for women that equals (or surpasses) their instinctive concern for their own bodies. As Christian men do this, the women in their lives will shine with the spiritual beauty that is precious to God (Richard and Sharon Phillips).

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat the butter in a large stockpot over high heat until very hot.  Add
the leeks, garlic, and onion and lightly saute for about 3  minutes.
Add the sherry and reduce over high heat until about 1/2 cup  of liquid
remains. Add the potatoes and stock, lower the heat to  medium, and
cook until the potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.  Puree the soup
with a handheld blender or in batches in a food  processor or blender
and then return the soup to the pan. Add the  cream, cayenne sauce, and
thyme and season to taste with lots of salt  and black pepper. Simmer
for about 10 minutes.  Meanwhile, to prepare the chicken, oil the grill
rack and preheat the  grill. Mix together the olive oil, basil, and
salt and pepper in a  small bowl and rub the chicken with the mixture.
Place the chicken on  the hot grill and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each
side. Remove  chicken from the grill, let cool for a few minutes, and
then julienne  it. Add the chicken to the soup and stir. Cook for a few
more minutes  if the chicken is still pink inside.  Ladle soup into
bowls and serve hot.  Converted by MC_Buster.  Per serving: 410
