Swordfish soup for dinner
Here it is. I made it up. Put in a pot:
About 2 Tbs olive oil
2 chopped medium onions
2 chopped large green chilis (mild)
1 chopped zucchini
Small handful of raw pumpkin seed (about 3 Tbsp)
Ground pepper
Crushed red pepper
Sauté until onion softens. Add:
1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes
1 qt of chicken stock
2-3 oz pasta, whatever shape you want (I wanted broken up thin spaghetti, but didn’t have any, so used wagon wheels)
Simmer for 20 minutes. Add:
Juice of two lemons
2 nice pieces swordfish, cut into chunks. I leave the skin on.
More chicken stock if needed.
Simmer for 8 minutes. Add:
1 bunch cilantro, rinsed and chopped
Dash of Worcestershire sauce
3/4 c. (more or less) frozen corn kernels
Simmer for 5 minutes.
If you have it, you can include a chopped red bell pepper in with the onions, etc. And you can use salt if you want. Enough for a few meals for 1.
