It is Soup weather here in San Antonio!!!!
Last night a Cold Front blew through bringing our temps down to the low 40's!!!
With those temperatures, this soup is absolutely PERFECT to make on a night like tonight.
I made this in my dutch oven but it is also a crock pot friendly recipe as well.
Make this tonight and then cuddle up with a cozy blanket and watch a Christmas Movie!!!
* Tip* I bought a rotisserie chicken and took all the meat off of the bones then chopped it all up to shave off some time on this meal. Also instead of chopping up veggies you can buy a veggie medley in the frozen section and just throw them in the pot and cook them down :)
Ingredient List:
2 cups cooked chicken- chopped
3 large carrots skinned and sliced
1 yellow onion chopped and diced
3 large celery stalks chopped
1/2 cup frozen peas
1/3 cup flour
32 oz chicken stock low sodium
salt and pepper
nutmeg
butter/olive oil
freshly grated sharp cheddar cheese
biscuits or oyster crackers for serving * optional*
Method:
place about a tablespoon or two in a large pot or dutch oven over medium high heat and let the pot get warm. Throw the onion, celery, and carrot in and cook them down until soft. Next, add your flour and coat the veggies well, then add your chicken stock and stir well. Add the chicken and peas and your seasonings ( with the nutmeg I eyeballed it but about 1/8 teaspoon should be fine). let this simmer for an hour and then serve with shredded cheddar and warm biscuits.
HOW EASY IS THIS?!
