Chilled Chicken and Avocado Bisque Preparation

Using stainless-steel knife, peel and pit avocado and cut into chunks. Puree in food processor or by rubbing through sieve with wooden spoon. Blend in chicken stock using blender, food processor or wire whisk. Beat in 2/3 cup sour cream until smooth and frothy. Season with salt and peppers or Tabasco and 1 tablespoon chives. Place in refrigerator to chill and thicken for 2 to 3 hours. (Can be made to this point up to 24 hours in advance; cover tightly with plastic wrap.) About 30 minutes before serving, place 4 soup cups or bowls in refrigerator to chill. Let chicken stand at room temperature (no more than 30 minutes). Cut chicken in fine dice or shred. Using fork, beat remaining 1/3 cup sour cream until thin. Place chicken in chilled cups. Ladle bisque over it. Drizzle beaten sour cream over it and garnish with remaining 1 tablespoon chives, minced chiles, roasted red pepper or pimiento, if desired. Serve cold. Notes: When we wrote about the return of soups last January, this was our hands-down favorite. The flavor is rich and the color is beautiful. It’s from “The Whole World Loves Chicken Soup,” by Mimi Sheraton (Warner Books, 1995).
