Ingredients | Jamaican Red Pea Soup Recipe

2 tablespoons butter or vegetable oil

1 cup chopped onion

2 (15 ounce) cans Del Monte® Sweet Peas, drained

2 cups baby spinach

4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

4 teaspoons fresh thyme

3 ½ cups chicken broth, divided

¼ cup heavy cream, sour cream, or plain Greek yogurt (Optional)

1 tablespoon Garlic croutons

Directions

Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook onion about 10 minutes or until lightly browned and soft, stirring frequently.

Blend onion, peas, spinach, lemon juice, thyme and 2 cups chicken broth in a blender or food processor until very smooth. Return to same saucepan. Stir in remaining broth. Gently heat about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Stir in cream, if desired. Heat over low heat about 1 minute. DO NOT BOIL. Garnish with garlic croutons, if desired.

For Minted Sweet Pea Soup, use 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves instead of thyme in Step 2.

For Tuscan Pea Soup, add 1/2 cup fresh basil instead of thyme in Step 2. Garnish with Parmesan cheese with garlic croutons in Step 3.
