Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup diced carrots
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (or almond flour for keto)

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken, chicken broth, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper in the slow cooker.
  2. Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours. Let the magic happen!
  3. Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken. Shred it and return it to the slow cooker, allowing it to mingle with the other ingredients once more.
  4. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Gradually stir in 1 cup of the broth from the slow cooker to create a roux, ensuring there are no lumps.
  6. Pour the roux and heavy cream into the slow cooker, stirring well to blend everything together.
  7. Cook for another 30 minutes on low until the soup is thickened to your desired consistency.
  8. Ladle into bowls and serve warm, basking in the comfort it brings.
