Sauté Base
- 6 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion (1 cup chopped)
- 2 medium carrots (thinly sliced into rings)
- 2 celery sticks (finely chopped)
Mushrooms and Aromatics
- 8 oz white or brown mushrooms (sliced)
- 3 garlic cloves (minced)
Thickening and Broth
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 6 cups chicken stock
- 3–4 tsp salt (or to taste)
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Vegetables and Meat
- 1 lb Yukon gold potatoes (peeled and sliced into 1/4” thick pieces)
- 5 cups cooked chicken (shredded)
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
Finishing Touches
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
- 1/4 cup parsley (finely chopped, plus more for garnish)
- Sauté Vegetables: Heat a dutch oven or soup pot over medium/high heat and melt 6 Tbsp of unsalted butter. Add chopped onion, celery, and sliced carrots, sautéing for 5-7 minutes while stirring occasionally until they soften and turn lightly golden.
- Add Mushrooms and Garlic: Stir in sliced mushrooms and minced garlic, cooking for another 5 minutes with occasional stirring until softened and fragrant.
- Create Roux: Sprinkle 1/3 cup all-purpose flour over the vegetables, stirring constantly for about 1 minute until the flour turns a light golden color. This will thicken the soup.
- Add Broth and Potatoes: Pour in 6 cups chicken stock along with sliced Yukon gold potatoes, 3 1/2 tsp salt (adjust to taste), and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Partially cover and cook for 12-15 minutes or until potatoes become tender.
- Add Chicken and Vegetables: Stir in shredded cooked chicken, frozen peas, frozen or canned corn, 1/2 cup whipping cream, and 1/4 cup chopped parsley. Return to a simmer and cook for an additional 5 minutes until peas and corn are tender.
- Season and Serve: Taste the soup and adjust salt and pepper if necessary. Remove from heat and garnish with extra parsley before serving.
Notes
- Use cooked rotisserie chicken for convenience and flavor.
- Adjust the amount of salt according to your dietary preference.
- For a thicker soup, cook a few minutes longer after adding the cream.
- Frozen peas and corn can be substituted with fresh if available.
- Serve with crusty bread for a complete meal.
