Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 large carrots, diced
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon salt, adjust to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (for thickening)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables are tender and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add Chicken and Broth: Stir in the shredded chicken, chicken broth, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
- Thicken the Soup: In a small bowl, whisk together the flour with a little bit of water to create a slurry. Stir this mixture into the soup – it will help thicken it. Next, add the heavy cream and stir until well combined.
- Finish with Vegetables: Add the frozen peas and corn. Continue to cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the soup is heated through and thickened to your liking.
- Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy with crusty bread for dipping!
