This Chicken and Mushroom Soup recipe is hearty, soul-warming, and perfect for a cold winter day. A delicious and nutritious soup that is perfect for a quick meal. Filled with tender chicken, earthy mushrooms, and rich broth, it's sure to keep you cozy all season long.
In a large stockpot on medium heat melt 2 tablespoons butter. Once butter is melted add in the parsley, garlic, mushrooms, carrots, and onions and cook until tender. - carrots will still be crunchy when the other items are tender and that is ok.
Add in 5 cups diced chicken and 5 cups of chicken broth and turn heat to high. Stir well and then cover with a glass lid until brought to a boil.
Once boiling continue the boiling until the carrots are tender. Once they are tender add in the half and half and then bring to a boil again. Once boiling again add salt and pepper to taste.
