Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, diced
2 large carrots, peeled and diced
2 celery stalks, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup milk or half-and-half (for extra creaminess)
3 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken is perfect!)
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup frozen corn
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 sheet puff pastry, baked and cut into squares (optional but delicious)
Fresh chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add diced onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5–7 minutes until softened.

4. Add shredded chicken, frozen peas, corn, thyme, and rosemary.
Simmer for 10–15 minutes to let flavors meld.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. While soup simmers, bake puff pastry per package directions.
Cut into squares for serving on top of soup.
