Chicken soup with corn and pumpkin

Vitamin-rich chicken soup with vegetables and spices. I want to say a few words about the cooking process. You can bake pepper both in the oven and on the stove, putting a divider on the fire, and pepper on it. I prefer the second way, it's faster this way. And then put it in a saucepan, close the lid and leave the pepper to cool. After such a process, the skin easily departs from the pepper. And then next time I will fry chicken breasts directly in a saucepan and add broth and other ingredients here. And instead of fresh oregano (I didn't find it in stores), I added fresh cilantro. There are some vegetables that I didn't even pay attention to when I was young. But, having gone far beyond the Balzac age, a woman willy-nilly stops and thinks about many things, including healthy nutrition. And it turns out that you undeservedly neglected such a respected vegetable as pumpkin – such a low-calorie and fiber-rich vegetable, which together contains a huge amount of vitamins and trace elements. Well, having discovered such a treasure, it would be, to put it mildly, ridiculous, and roughly speaking, stupid not to use such a kind vegetable as a beautiful pumpkin. Well, since I am a supporter of not only healthy, but also delicious food, I offer you a Peruvian chicken soup with pumpkin.
