6. Creamy Chicken and Mushroom Soup

This soup is basically a hug in a bowl. It uses simple ingredients I almost always have in the fridge.
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts diced
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 16 ounces mushrooms sliced
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Method
 

  1. Melt one tablespoon of butter in a pot over medium heat.
  2. Cook the diced chicken until no longer pink, then remove it from the pot and set aside.
  3. Melt the remaining butter in the same pot and sauté the mushrooms until soft.
  4. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir well.
  5. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
  6. Return the chicken to the pot and stir in the heavy cream.
  7. Simmer for 5 more minutes until heated through.
