Every year on the Saturday preceding the Super Bowl, Wild Oats Market in Albuquerque sponsors the Chef’s Invitational Souper Bowl Soup Contest. In 1995, W.C. defeated a dozen of other Albuquerque chefs with this grand prize winner. Use whatever wild mushrooms you have to make 9 ounces—we have suggested a mixture, below. W.C. gathered most of the musrooms from the Sandia Mountains near Albuquerque and urges aficionados to learn about wild mushrooms.



Ingredients



  • 1 3/4 pound chicken breasts, marinated in ½ cup teriyaki sauce and 1 ½ tablespoons grated ginger for 20 minutes

  • 9 ounces mixed wild mushrooms (suggested: 2 ½ ounces, boletes, 2 ½ ounces cepes,
    2 ounces morels, 1 ounce golden trumpets, 1 ounce black trumpets)

  • 2 large shallots, minced

  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic

  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • 4 quarts homemade chicken stock

  • ½ medium onion, chopped fine

  • 3/4 cup butter, divided in thirds

  • 1 pound domestic mushrooms, sliced

  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic

  • 3/4 cup all purpose flour

  • 2 ounces hard romano cheese, finely grated

  • 1 quart cream

  • ½ cup dry sherry

  • 2 cups V-8 juice

  • Salt to taste



Instructions


Grill the chicken until done, chop fine, and set aside.

Soak the wild mushrooms in 3 cups warm water for 20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and repeat in 2 cups water. Reserve the water. Remove the mushrooms from the water and chop fine. Place the mushrooms, reserved water, shallots, garlic, black pepper, and chicken stock in a stock pot and boil for 30 minutes, adding water to keep to the original volume.

Saute the onion in the 1/4 cup butter and set aside.

Saute the domestic mushrooms in 1/4 cup butter with the garlic. Add the sauteed onions, mushrooms, and garlic to the stock pot.

Melt the remaining 1/4 cup butter in a pan, add the flour, and make a roux until lightly browned. Add the roux to the pot, stirring well. Add the chopped chicken breast and romano cheese and stir well. Add the cream, sherry, V-8 juice, and salt and heat for 10 minutes.
