Creamy Chicken Rice Soup

A creamy, filling soup perfect for family dinner on a chilly night!

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 celery chopped 
• 2 carrots peeled and chopped 
• 1/2 onion 
• Olive oil
• Chopped garlic (about three cloves)
• 3 TBS flour 
• 4 cups chicken broth 
• 1 cup uncooked rice 
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 pound uncooked chicken cut into bite size pieces 

DIRECTIONS:

• Chop all veggies 
• With 1 TBS oil, sauté celery, onion and carrots in soup pot for 5 minutes
• Add garlic and cook for about 30 seconds
• Add in flour and cook for about a minute (coating veggies)
• Slowly add in chicken broth (scraping the bottom of the pot)
• Add salt and pepper to taste
• Stir in rice and heavy whipping cream
• Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer
• Cover the pot with lid to cook rice for about ten minutes, stirring occasionally
• Add in chicken and cook for another 10-12 minutes (while stirring occasionally so rice doesn’t stick)
• Serve hot with your favorite bread or crackers
  
  *Krista’s pro tip: I personally cook the rice separate and instead of adding when you add the cream, let the soup broth cook for a bit then add the chicken and let cook. If you’re planning on saving leftovers, it’s best to keep rice separate since it soaks up the broth!
