Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, combine chicken broth and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
  2. Once simmering, add the shredded chicken and frozen mixed vegetables to the pot, stirring gently to mix everything together.
