Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup thinly sliced carrots
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped parsley for topping optional

Method
 

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until soft and lightly golden.
  2. Add the garlic and carrots and cook another 2 to 3 minutes, stirring so the garlic doesn’t burn.
  3. Stir in the mushrooms and let them cook for 5 to 7 minutes until they release their liquid and start to brown.
  4. Add the shredded chicken and drizzle in the soy sauce. Stir and cook for 2 minutes to warm everything through.
  5. Pour in the broth and water, scraping the bottom of the pot. Add thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk the flour with a few tablespoons of cool water to make a smooth slurry. Slowly pour it into the soup while stirring.
  7. Add the cream and butter. Let the soup simmer gently for about 5 more minutes until slightly thickened. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  8. Ladle into bowls and top with parsley if you feel fancy.

Notes

This is the kind of soup that doesn’t try to impress. It just quietly does its job and makes the evening better.
And honestly, that’s the best kind of food.
