Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a large pot, melt 2 tablespoons of salted butter over medium heat. Add 1 chopped yellow onion and 3 minced garlic cloves, sautéing until translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh oregano and 1 teaspoon of chili powder. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Whisk in 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring constantly until a roux forms.
- Pour in 4 cups of bone broth, stirring to avoid lumps. Add 3 peeled and diced russet potatoes and 2 cups of chopped broccoli, bring to a simmer. Cover partially and cook for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender.
- Mash some of the potatoes and broccoli directly in the pot for a chunky texture or carefully blend for a smoother consistency.
- Lower the heat and stir in 1 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of salsa verde, and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese until melted and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with chopped green onions and additional cheddar cheese. Serve immediately.
