Ingredients
For the Topping:
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 egg, beaten with 1 Tablespoon water
For the Soup:
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 medium carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup half-and-half
- 2 cups diced raw chicken breast
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup frozen peas
- 1/2 cup frozen corn
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
Optional garnish: fresh parsley or thyme
Instructions
Prepare the Puff Pastry: Preheat the oven to 400. Cut the puff pastry into squares to fit your serving bowls. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush with the beaten egg mixture, and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Set aside.
Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pot, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
Make the Base: Stir in the flour, coating the vegetables evenly. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
Add Liquids and Seasonings: Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring no lumps form. Add the half-and-half, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir well and bring to a gentle boil.
Incorporate Chicken: Add the chicken to the soup and simmer for 5 minutes to cook through.
Simmer and Add Vegetables: Add the diced potato and simmer for 10-12 minutes, until the potatoes are tender. Stir in the peas and corn and cook for another 5 minutes.
Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls. Place a baked square of puff pastry on top of each bowl or serve on the side. Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme if desired.
Notes
I make the soup with raw chicken instead of pre-cooked chicken. Cooking the chicken directly in the soup not only saves time but also allows the chicken to infuse the broth with extra flavor.
