  • 1 medium yellow onion diced (about 150 g)
  • 2 celery stalks sliced (about 100 g)
  • 2 medium carrots peeled and chopped (about 150 g)
  • 2 cloves garlic minced (about 1 tbsp)
  • 1/4 cup 32 g all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups 960 ml low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 medium potatoes peeled and diced (about 400 g)
  • 1 tsp 1 g dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp 1 g black pepper
  • 1 bay leaf

  • 2 tbsp 8 g fresh parsley, chopped

Method
 

  1. Warm butter and olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until melted and shimmering.
  2. Add diced onion, celery, and carrots, cooking until vegetables soften and onions turn translucent.
  3. Stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir until fully absorbed and lightly toasted.
  5. Slowly pour in chicken broth while whisking to dissolve any lumps and build a smooth base.
  6. Add diced potatoes, dried thyme, black pepper, and bay leaf, stirring to combine.
  7. Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then lower heat and simmer until potatoes are just tender.
  8. Stir in shredded chicken and frozen peas, heating until warmed through.
  9. Pour in heavy cream, stirring until the soup becomes luxuriously creamy.
  10. Season with salt and adjust pepper to taste.
  11. Remove bay leaf and sprinkle fresh parsley over the top before serving.
