    Categories: Vegetables, Poultry, Citrus, Herbs
    Yield: 4 servings

    3 tb Olive oil, more for
    Drizzling
    1 lg Onion; chopped
    2 cl Garlic; minced
    1 tb Tomato paste
    1 ts Ground cumin
    1/4 ts (ea) salt & black pepper
    pn Ground chile; more to taste
    1 qt Chicken broth
    2 c Water

    In a large pot, heat 3 tablespoons oil over high heat

    sauté until golden, about 4 minutes.

    Stir in tomato paste, cumin, salt, black pepper and

    Add broth, 2 cups water, lentils and carrot. Bring to a
    simmer, then partially cover pot and turn heat to

    minutes. Taste and add salt if necessary.

    Using an immersion or regular blender or a food
    processor, purée half the soup then add it back to pot.
    Soup should be somewhat chunky.

    Reheat soup if necessary, then stir in lemon juice and
    cilantro. Serve soup drizzled with good olive oil and
    dusted lightly with chile powder if desired.
