1 lb chicken (cooked, shredded)
1 cup carrots (diced)
1 cup celery (diced)
1 cup peas (frozen)
1/2 cup onion (diced)
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons flour
Salt and pepper to taste
In a large pot over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter or oil. Add the diced onions and sauté until they become translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the diced carrots and celery. Continue cooking for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Stir in the flour until the vegetables are coated. This will help thicken the soup.
Gradually pour in the chicken broth, stirring constantly to avoid any lumps. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Once boiling, add the shredded chicken and frozen peas. Reduce the heat to a simmer and let it cook for about 15 minutes, allowing all the flavors to meld together.
Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Let it simmer for another 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve hot with fresh bread, biscuits, or crackers. Enjoy!
