Ingredients

  • 3/4 c finely chopped onion
  • 1 diced carrot (small)
  • 2 T butter (28g)
  • 2 diced potatoes (peeled, medium-sized)
  • 1.5 T Flour (Plain)
  • 2.5 c chicken broth
  • 1 minced cubanelle pepper
  • salt (to taste)
  • 1/2 t freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 T finely chopped parsley (fresh)
  • 1.5 T fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 t lemon zest

Method

Saute the onion and carrot with butter for 2-3 minutes on medium heat in a medium sized pot.  Add the potatoes and continue to saute for about 4-5 more minutes.  Add the flour and stir one more minute.  Now add the chicken broth, cubanelle pepper, salt, and pepper.  Cook until the carrot is tender, on medium-low heat.  

Add the parsley, lemon juice, and lemon zest.  Discard the bay leaf.  Immediately pour into individual bowls and serve.

Notes

SJ Note: We've had this a couple of times, it's really tasty.  Definite keeper!  We don't have cubanelle peppers here; I'm not sure what I've used in the past, but Cook's Thesaurus says you can use bell peppers.
