Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the red bell peppers on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the peppers are charred and softened.
  3. Remove the peppers from the oven and let them cool. Once cooled, peel off the skin, remove the seeds, and chop the peppers.
  4. In a large pot, heat some olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic cloves, and cook until softened.
  5. Add the chopped roasted red bell peppers, vegetable broth, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
  6. While the soup is simmering, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the corn kernels and cook until lightly charred.
  7. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, chopped cilantro, and lime juice.
  8. Once the soup is done simmering, use an immersion blender or transfer it to a blender to puree until smooth.
  9. Serve the roasted red pepper soup topped with the roasted corn and a dollop of the cilantro lime sour cream.
