Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups chicken broth low-sodium preferred
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt or to taste

Method
 

Steps
  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery, and sauté for 5 minutes until softened.
  2. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir to coat. Cook for 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
  4. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk until smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer.
  5. Add the chicken pieces, thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the soup has thickened.
  6. Stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 3–5 minutes until heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  7. Serve hot, optionally garnished with fresh parsley or a sprinkle of black pepper.

Notes

For a richer flavor, substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for the milk. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of broth if needed to loosen the consistency.
