1 Tbsp olive oil

1 1/2 cups diced yellow onion

1 cup diced celery

1 cup diced carrots

1 1/2 Tbsp minced garlic

4 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

2 tsp minced fresh thyme

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

6 oz. mushrooms

2 Tbsp butter

2 Tbsp flour

Directions

Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, turning once halfway through, for 6 minutes total. Transfer chicken to a plate leaving fat in pan . Reduce heat to medium. Add in onions, carrots, celery and saute 5 minutes. Add in garlic and saute 1 minute longer. Pour in 3 1/2 cups chicken broth, potatoes, rosemary, thyme and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil then add in mushrooms and chicken. Reduce heat to medium-low then cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes. During the last 5 minutes of soup cooking, in a separate small saucepan melt butter over medium heat. Add flour and cook whisking constantly, 1 minute. While whisking pour in remaining 1 cup chicken broth. Cook whisking constantly until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, remove from heat. Pour flour mixture into soup mixture once soup is finished. Stir parsley into soup and serve warm. .
