Green Chili And Corn Bisque Recipes

Steps:

• Set a 6-quart multi-cooker to the saute setting and add the butter. Add the bacon, onions and oregano and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions start to become translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the green chiles, corn and garlic and cook for an additional minute. Add 3 cups of the chicken stock.
• In a separate bowl, whisk the cornstarch into the remaining 1/3 cup chicken stock. Add to the multi-cooker and stir well. Cover and position the vent to the sealing setting. Set the multi-cooker to pressure-cook on high for 5 minutes. When the time is up, carefully quick release the steam (it takes about 3 minutes), then remove the lid.
• Mix in the heavy cream. Stir in the cheeses until they have melted completely. Check the seasoning; add salt and pepper as needed. Ladle into bowls and serve immediately garnished with the green onions.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet until hot; add onions and cook slowly over low heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add chilies, basil and marjoram, and continue cooking 5 minutes longer, stirring occasionally. Add corn and stir. Add sugar and water, increase heat and bring liquid to a simmer. Add oyster juice, remove herbs and cool.
• Pour corn mixture into a blender or food processor and puree until smooth, adding more water if too thick. Pass the soup though a fine mesh strainer into a pot over low heat and keep warm.
• In a saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms and saute until lightly browned, about 5 minutes; set aside. In another saute pan over medium heat, warm the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Add oysters and cook until barely warm, about 3 minutes. Pour any remaining oyster juice into the soup pot.
• Pour the soup into 8 warm bowls, arrange oysters and mushrooms in the center of each and garnish with chives.
