Ingredients

Chicken and Broth

  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 4 cups chicken broth

Vegetables and Aromatics

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cups mushrooms, sliced

Seasonings and Garnish

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Sauté Onion: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes, to build the soup’s flavor base.
  2. Add Garlic and Mushrooms: Stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Continue cooking until the mushrooms are golden and softened, roughly 5 minutes, releasing their earthy aromas.
  3. Add Broth and Seasonings: Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir in dried thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper to infuse the soup with aromatic spices.
  4. Add Chicken and Simmer: Incorporate the shredded rotisserie chicken into the pot. Allow the soup to simmer for 5 minutes to heat the chicken through and blend the flavors.
  5. Stir in Cream and Final Simmer: Pour in the heavy cream and simmer for an additional 3-4 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed to achieve a balanced creamy flavor.
  6. Serve: Ladle the hot soup into bowls, garnishing with fresh parsley or a sprinkle of black pepper, and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken for convenience and depth of flavor.
  • Fresh mushrooms add the best texture and taste, but canned mushrooms can be used in a pinch.
  • Adjust cream quantity to preference for a lighter or richer soup.
  • For a thicker soup, you can add a tablespoon of flour when sautéing onions and mushrooms to create a roux.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
