Instrucciones

First things first, preheat your oven to 450°F (220°C). Grab a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spread out the tomatoes, peppers, onion, and garlic cloves. Roast them for about 30 to 40 minutes until they’re beautifully caramelized.

Once those veggies are roasted to perfection, let them cool for 10 to 15 minutes. Then, toss them into a blender and blend until the mixture is nice and smooth.

Now, in a large pot, melt butter and olive oil over medium heat. Sprinkle in the flour and stir it for 1 to 2 minutes to get a lovely base going. Next, add in the tomato paste and let it cook for another minute or two, stirring continuously.

Gradually whisk in 1 cup of chicken broth until it’s all combined. Then, whisk in the remaining 3 cups of broth, after add delicious vegetable puree. Season it all with salt, sugar, and black pepper to taste. Bring everything to a gentle boil, then stir in the cream and fresh basil (or dried). Give it a taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Simmer for few minutes.

Time to serve! Ladle the soup into your favorite bowls and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and heavy cream, plus a sprinkle of fresh basil. Enjoy with Bacon Grilled Cheese Sandwich or Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich!
