Ingredients
Scale
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 carrots, peeled and diced
2 celery stalks, diced
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup milk or half-and-half
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 cups cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup frozen corn
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Salt and pepper to taste
1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed (optional)
Instructions
Sauté the Aromatics. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and the onions are translucent.
Add Mushrooms and Spices. Stir in the sliced mushrooms, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and ground sage. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, until the mushrooms have softened and released their moisture.
Create the Soup Base. Pour in the chicken broth, milk (or half-and-half), and heavy cream. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
Thicken the Soup. In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour with about 1/4 cup of cold water to form a smooth slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the simmering soup, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Continue to simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the soup has thickened to your desired consistency.
Add Chicken and Veggies. Stir in the shredded cooked chicken, frozen peas, and frozen corn. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are heated through and the chicken is warmed. Season with salt and pepper to your liking.
Serve and Garnish. Ladle the Cozy Chicken Potpie Soup into bowls and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. If using puff pastry, bake it separately according to package directions and place a piece on top of each bowl just before serving.
