INSTRUCTIONS
OPTIONAL GARNISHES
In a large saucepan, heat oil and butter. Add garlic and onions; saute
until softened. Add squash, chiles and tomatillos, stirring until coated
and heated through. Add chicken broth; bring to a boil, then cover and
simmer for about 20 minutes or until squash is tender. Tear or shred
tortillas into pieces and add to soup mixture. Stir in lime juice and
cilantro leaves.
In a blender or food processor, blend soup in batches until pureed and
smooth. Return to saucepan and heat through. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Serve hot accompanied with a dollop of sour cream and a few crumbled
tortilla chips and cilantro leaves. This is a thick soup; if you prefer it
thinner, add more chicken broth.
