Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 pound cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3 cups rotisserie chicken shredded
  • 1 cup heavy cream room temperature
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • Dutch Oven
  • Whisk
  • Wooden spoon

Method
 

  1. Melt the butter and olive oil in a large pot over medium heat, then add the sliced mushrooms and cook undisturbed for 5 minutes until browned.
  2. Add the diced onion and cook for 4 minutes until soft. Stir in the minced garlic and fresh thyme, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables, stirring well to coat. Cook for 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth slowly while whisking constantly. Bring to a gentle simmer and let thicken slightly for 10 minutes.
  5. Lower the heat to medium-low. Stir in the heavy cream and shredded rotisserie chicken. Let warm through for 5 minutes without letting it boil. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Ensure the heavy cream is not cold when adding it to the pot to prevent curdling.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Do not freeze.
