• 份量: 6 servings
• 准备时间: 15 minutes
• 总时间: 30 minutes

配料

8 ounces boneless, skinless chicken thighs (cut into 1-inch chunks)

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

8 ounces cremini mushrooms (thinly sliced)

1 onion (diced)

3 carrots (peeled and diced)

2 ribs celery (diced)

3 cloves garlic (minced)

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

4 cups chicken stock

1 bay leaf

1/2 cup half and half (or more, as needed*)

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

步骤

Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper, to taste.

Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chicken to the stockpot and cook until golden, about 2-3 minutes; set aside.

Melt butter in the stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add mushrooms, onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in garlic and thyme until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute.

Stir in chicken stock, bay leaf and chicken, and cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened, about 4-5 minutes.

Stir in half and half until heated through, about 1-2 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste. If the soup is too thick, add more half and half as needed until desired consistency is reached.

Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
