Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
  • 3 medium carrots diced
  • 2 stalks celery diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour optional, for thickening
  • Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Cooking Instructions:
  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  • Add the cubed chicken to the pot and cook until it's no longer pink, approximately 5-7 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary.
  • Incorporate the diced carrots and celery into the pot, stirring to combine. Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and let it cook for about 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  • Stir in the frozen peas and heavy cream. If you prefer a thicker soup, mix the flour with a little water to make a slurry, then add it to the soup while stirring. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes until heated through and slightly thickened.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Remove from heat and ladle into bowls. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
  • Extra Tips:
  • When making Chicken Pot Pie Soup, feel free to customize the vegetables based on what you have available or your family's preferences.
  • You can also use leftover rotisserie chicken to save time. If you want to make it even heartier, consider adding potatoes or corn. For a more pronounced flavor, a splash of white wine can be added along with the chicken broth.
  • Enjoy this soup fresh, but it also reheats well, making it perfect for meal prep!
