Yield: Makes 4 servings.

1 1/4 cups chipotle salsa
2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
3 14-1/2-ounce cans low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
3 cups cooked rice
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro sprigs
Vegetable cooking spray
fresh cilantro, for garnish

Place salsa in strainer pressing down lightly to remove excess liquid; reserve salsa in medium bowl.

Combine peanut butter, broth and coconut milk in 2-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat until heated through, 8 to 10 minutes, whisking frequently.

Meanwhile, in medium bowl, combine reserved salsa, rice and cilantro. Divide rice mixture evenly into 4 custard cups coated with cooking spray, pressing down firmly to set. To serve, invert each custard cup in the center of a soup bowl, remove cup and spoon hot soup around remaining rice mold. Garnish with cilantro sprigs.
