Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 carrots, diced

2 celery stalks, diced

1 pound cooked chicken breast, shredded

4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

1 cup frozen peas

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1 cup heavy cream or milk

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

Stir in shredded chicken, chicken broth, peas, thyme, and rosemary. Bring to a gentle simmer.

In a small bowl, whisk flour into the heavy cream or milk until smooth.

Slowly pour the cream mixture into the pot, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.

Simmer for 10–15 minutes, until the soup thickens to desired consistency.

Taste and season with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken or pre-cooked chicken for convenience.

Swap heavy cream with unsweetened almond milk for a lighter option.

Add cooked quinoa or white beans to boost the protein even more.

Freezes well for up to 2 months — store without cream and add it fresh when reheating.
