Ingredients

    11 medium (approx 2-3/4" long, 2-1/2" dia) Peppers, sweet, red, fresh
    4 tbsp Butter, salted
    2 medium (2-1/2" dia) Onions, diced
    3 stalk, medium (7-1/2" - 8" long) Celery, sliced thin
    3 tbsp chopped Shallots
    4 clove Garlic, minced
    4 cup (8 fl oz) Chicken Broth
    1 tbsp Paprika
    1 tsp Pepper, white
    1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
    1 cup Milk, nonfat (skim milk)

Directions

Cut peppers from seeds and membranes. Roast at 450 for 20-25 minutes until mostly tender. Pull out and slightly cool. After cool dice peppers and set aside. In a large pot melt butter over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, shallots, and celery. Cook until onions start to turn translucent. About 5-7 minutes. Add in paprika and white pepper until fragrant. Another 1-2 minutes. Add in diced peppers and chicken broth and make sure to scrape any brown bits off bottom of pan. Cook for another 5-10 minutes before either pureeing with an immersion blender or blending in batches in a regular blender. Once blended reduce heat to low and add milk and cream. I blend a second time with my immersion blender and then remove from the heat. Serve hot or cold. Your choice!
