Extra Creamy Cowboy Soup Recipe Recipe For Chicken

CREAMY CHICKEN SOUP

Steps:

• For the soup, in a 4-quart or larger saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery and onion. Pour in the broth and add the chicken bouillon, bay leaves, parsley, herbs de provence, turmeric, garlic powder, and pepper. Stir to combine.
• Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, uncovered or partially covered, for 12-15 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
• For the roux, while the soup simmers, in a small saucepan, add the olive oil and butter and cook on medium heat until the butter is melted. Add the flour and whisk to combine until a smooth paste forms. Remove from the heat.
• Add the milk (and/or half-and-half) to the soup and heat through. Add the roux to the soup and cook, stirring or whisking constantly, over medium heat until the soup thickens and gently simmers, 5-7 minutes.
• Stir in the chicken, season to taste with salt and pepper (this is important for flavor!) and heat through.
• Remove the bay leaves and serve with a sprinkle of Parmesan, asiago or gruyere on top.
