Chicken and Almond Soup

Chicken and Almond Soup also known as Sopa de Pollo y Almendrasis a dish that makes perfect sense. When you poach the chicken breasts they maintain their delicate flavour. However when you blitz one of them for the foundation of the soup and slice the other, this soup takes a new direction. The soup has both the flavour and body of chicken with the almonds blitz as well creates a lovely smooth texture.
