Categories: soup, vegetable

Ingredients

• 6 T unsalted butter
• 1 1/2 c chopped yellow onion
• 7c frozen peas
• 3 c chicken stock
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Sour cream to taste
• 4 thin slices of prosciutto, sliced thinly and crisped in a toaster oven. You can also use thin sliced bacon.

Directions

1. Melt butter in a large saucepan. Add the onions and cook over low heat until soft and translucent, about 15 minutes.

2. Add the peas and stock and simmer for 5-10 minutes, just until the peas are tender.

3. Transfer the soup to a food processor (or use a stick blender) and carefully puree until smooth.

4. Season with salt and pepper.

5. This is where the recipe and I went our separate ways. The recipe calls for a ”garnish” of sour cream to be added when the soup is served.

6. Serve with prosciutto or bacon.
