Ingredients
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 cups chicken broth
3 cups roasted corn salsa
1-cup heavy cream
1/2-teaspoon salt
1/4-teaspoon white pepper
1-cup sour cream
1/2 lb. fresh crab (use lump)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
2 green onions, chopped
Preparation
Melt the butter in a large heavy saucepan. Sauté the onion for 5 minutes or until tender. Add the chicken broth and corn salsa.
Bring the soup to a boil then lower the heat, place a cover on the pot slightly askew, and simmer for 20 minutes.
Add the heavy cream, salt and white pepper, and return to a boil, then whisk in the sour cream and crabmeat.
Heat just a couple of minutes to warm the sour cream and crab but don’t bring it to a boil as it may curdle. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with the cilantro and green onions.
