Ingredients:
2 cups cooked rotisserie chicken, shredded
8 oz mushrooms, sliced (cremini, button, or mixed)
1 medium onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream (or half-and-half for a lighter option)
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp fresh thyme (or 1 tsp dried)
1 tsp smoked paprika (optional for depth)
Salt & black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp flour (optional, for thickening)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Heat olive oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onions and cook until soft and translucent (3–4 minutes). Stir in garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add sliced mushrooms and thyme. Sauté for 5–7 minutes until the mushrooms are golden brown and their liquid has evaporated.
Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any flavorful bits from the bottom. Add shredded rotisserie chicken and simmer for 10 minutes.
If thickening, sprinkle flour over the mixture and cook for 1–2 minutes. Slowly stir in the heavy cream and heat gently until the soup becomes creamy and smooth. Add more broth if a thinner consistency is desired.
Add smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to taste. Simmer for another 2–3 minutes, then ladle into bowls. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm with crusty bread or crackers.
