Ingredients
- – 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (60g)
- – 1 cup small-diced carrot (140g)
- – 1 cup small-diced celery (140g)
- – 1 cup small diced onion (140g)
- – 2 cloves garlic, minced
- – 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (30g)
- – 4 cups chicken stock (960ml)
- – 1 1/2 cups small diced Yukon gold potatoes (225g)
- – 1 bay leaf
- – 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) dried thyme
- – 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) black pepper
- – 2 cups (480 ml) cooked diced or shredded chicken
- – 1/2 cup heavy cream (120ml)
- – 1 cup frozen peas (140g)
- – 1/2 cup frozen vegetable mix (70g)
- – Biscuits for serving
- – fresh chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the butter over medium heat until melted.
- Add the diced carrots, celery, and onions, cooking them and stirring occasionally until they soften and start to brown, about 10 minutes. Next, add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly until it releases its aroma.
- Sprinkle the flour into the pot and stir it in, cooking for about a minute.
- Pour in the chicken stock and add the potatoes. Season the mixture with the bay leaf, thyme, and black pepper, stirring until well combined.
- Allow the mixture to reach a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer gently for 15 minutes or until the potatoes become tender, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Stir in the cooked chicken, heavy cream, peas, and frozen vegetable mix until everything is well combined.
- Return the soup to a gentle simmer and let it heat for another 5 minutes until all ingredients are warmed through. Remove the bay leaf before serving. Accompany with biscuits and top with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
Notes
- – To reduce fat content while maintaining creaminess, substitute heavy cream with half and half or whole milk.
- – Enhance nutritional value and flavor by adding corn, green beans, or bell peppers to the soup.
- – Save time by using rotisserie chicken or leftover cooked chicken for the diced or shredded chicken in the recipe.
