Ingredients
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
2 tablespoons butter
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
1. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and sliced mushrooms. Cook for 10-12 minutes until mushrooms are browned and onions are soft.
2. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
3. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir well. Cook for 2 more minutes to remove raw flour taste.
4. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pot. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.
5. Add the shredded rotisserie chicken, thyme, salt, and pepper. Let simmer for 5 minutes.
6. Pour in the heavy cream and stir gently. Heat through without boiling.
7. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot with bread or fresh herbs.
Notes
Use cremini or baby bella mushrooms for deeper flavor.
Add a splash of broth or cream when reheating if soup thickens.
For a lighter version, swap heavy cream with half-and-half.
