Ingredients

  • 2 medium carrots (thinly sliced into rings)
  • 2 celery sticks (finely chopped)
  • 8 oz white or brown mushrooms (sliced)
  • 3 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 3-4 tsp salt ((or to taste))
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 lb potatoes (peeled and sliced into 1/4” thick pieces.)
  • 5 cups cooked chicken ((shredded))
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup corn ((frozen or canned))
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup parsley (finely chopped, plus more for garnish)

Directions

  1. 1

    Begin with Butter: Start by melting 6 Tbsp of unsalted butter in a large pot over a medium-high flame.

  2. 2

    Vegetable Sauté: Toss in the yellow onion, carrots, and celery into the pot. Stir them around for about 5-7 minutes until they're soft and taking on a golden hue.

  3. 3

    Mushroom and Garlic Addition: Add the mushrooms and garlic into the mix, letting them cook together for 5 more minutes until everything is tender.

  4. 4

    Thickening with Flour: Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables, stirring it in well for a minute until it forms a golden roux.

  5. 5

    Liquid and Seasonings: Slowly add in the chicken stock, followed by the potatoes, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then drop the heat to a simmer, covering the pot partially. Let it cook until the potatoes are just tender, about 12-15 minutes.

  6. 6

    Chicken, Peas, and Corn: Stir in the shredded chicken, peas, and corn, mixing them into the soup thoroughly.

  7. 7

    Final Creamy Touch: Add the whipping cream and parsley, bringing the soup back up to a simmer for a few more minutes until the additional vegetables are soft.

  8. 8

    Ready to Serve: After adjusting the seasoning to your liking, take the soup off the heat. Ladle it into bowls, garnish with a sprinkle of parsley, and it's ready to enjoy.
