Ingredients
- 4 large red bell peppers, roasted and peeled
- 6 ripe tomatoes, chopped
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt, adjust to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Roast the Peppers: Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Place the red bell peppers on a baking sheet and roast for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is blistered and charred. Remove from the oven and cover with foil to steam for 10 minutes. Once cooled, peel off the skins and chop the peppers.
- Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent (about 5 minutes).
- Combine Ingredients: Add the chopped roasted red peppers, tomatoes, vegetable broth, salt, black pepper, dried basil, and smoked paprika to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Blend the Soup: Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth, or carefully transfer to a blender in batches. Return the soup to the pot and heat gently before serving.
- Garnish and Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired, and enjoy with crusty bread.
