Steps
- Preheat large stockpot on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Add oil, seasoning blend, garlic, chili powder, and seasoning; cook 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until vegetables are tender.
- Squeeze orange for juice (½ cup) and add to pot; reduce heat to medium and cook 4–5 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed. Remove vegetable mixture from heat and place in blender.
