This is a delicious creamy Mexican soup. It turns out great if you want to substitute light ingredients. It came from the first Mexican restaurant in my town. My dad and husband LOVE this stuff! Serve this with Mexican rice, tortillas, and a fresh mexican salad. YUM!

4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon oil
4 chicken breasts
9 whole canned chilies (ortega)
1 medium onion
1/2 lb button mushroom
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 can cream of mushroom soup
2 cups sour cream
salt and pepper
3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese

1. Cut chicken, onion, mushrooms, and 6 chiles into strips.
2. Set aside.
3. Put milk, soup, and remaining 3 chiles in blender and blend till smooth.
