    \u00a0Instructions<\/h3>\n

    1. Saut\u00e9 the Aromatics<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter<\/strong> and olive oil<\/strong> over medium heat.
    \nAdd the diced onion<\/strong>, carrots<\/strong>, and celery<\/strong>. Saut\u00e9 for 5\u20136 minutes<\/strong>, until the veggies begin to soften. Stir in the garlic<\/strong> and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.<\/p>\n

    2. Add the Potatoes and Seasoning<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    Toss in the diced potatoes<\/strong>, thyme<\/strong>, pepper<\/strong>, and a big pinch of salt<\/strong>. Stir everything together to coat the vegetables in the seasonings.<\/p>\n

    Pro Tip:<\/strong> If you like extra herbs, you can add a dash of rosemary or poultry seasoning here for even more pot pie flavor.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    3. Make the Roux<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    Sprinkle the flour<\/strong> over the vegetables and stir constantly for 1\u20132 minutes<\/strong>.
    \nThis helps cook off the raw flour taste and creates the base of your creamy soup.<\/p>\n

    4. Pour in Broth, Milk, and Cream<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    Slowly whisk in the chicken broth<\/strong>, scraping the bottom of the pot to loosen any browned bits.
    \nThen pour in the milk<\/strong> and heavy cream<\/strong>, stirring until the mixture is smooth.
    \nBring the soup to a gentle simmer<\/strong>, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 10\u201315 minutes<\/strong>, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.<\/p>\n

    5. Add Chicken and Peas<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    Stir in the cooked chicken<\/strong> and frozen peas<\/strong>, and continue cooking for another 5\u201310 minutes<\/strong>, just until everything is hot and the soup has thickened slightly.<\/p>\n

    Taste and adjust salt and pepper<\/strong> as needed.<\/p>\n

    \u00a0Want extra richness? Stir in a tablespoon of cream cheese or a knob of butter at the end.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    6. Serve and Enjoy<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley<\/strong> if desired.
    \nServe hot, optionally topped with:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Buttery biscuits<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Baked puff pastry squares<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Crumbled crackers<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Toasted bread<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      \u00a0Storage & Freezing<\/h3>\n
        \n
      • Refrigerator:<\/strong> Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
      • Freezer:<\/strong> Freeze in individual portions for up to 3 months<\/strong>. Let thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of milk or broth to thin if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Make-Ahead Tip:<\/strong> This soup is perfect for meal prep! It gets even more flavorful the next day.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

        Variations & Substitutions<\/h3>\n
          \n
        • No cream?<\/strong> Use all milk or substitute with evaporated milk for a lighter version.<\/li>\n
        • Low-carb?<\/strong> Swap the potatoes for cauliflower florets.<\/li>\n
        • No chicken?<\/strong> Add cooked turkey (great post-Thanksgiving idea) or use a plant-based chicken alternative.<\/li>\n
