Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts, ½ teaspoon salt, and pepper.
- Cook the chicken on each side for 3-4 minutes until browned, but not cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
- To the same pot, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add the carrots, celery, and onion. Sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt and the dried herbs. Cook until the carrots are tender, about 6-7 minutes.
- Add the garlic, wild rice, and flour and cook for another minute. Pour in the wine and cook for 1-2 more minutes.
- Gradually stir in the chicken broth.
- Place the chicken back into the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, turn down the heat and let it simmer, covered, for about 45 minutes until the wild rice is cooked and the chicken is fork tender.
- Remove the chicken from the pot, shred it with 2 forks, and add the shredded chicken back into the pot.
- Pour in the heavy cream and give the soup a good stir. Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
Notes
- Storage: Let soup cool to room temperature, pour into airtight containers, and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Because this soup is cream-based, I recommend reheating it on the stovetop instead of the microwave.
