Ingredients
- 3/4 cup chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon celery salt
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- ⅓ cup finely diced chicken 1.5 ounces
- 1 teaspoon salted butter
Instructions
- Whisk together chicken stock and cornstarch in a small saucepan over low heat. (My burner was set to 3.5 out of 8.) 3/4 cup chicken stock, 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- While the stock is heating, stir in the salt, celery salt, onion powder, and garlic powder. ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon celery salt, ¼ teaspoon onion powder, ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
- Whisk often as it is initially starting to heat. You’ll see the mixture starting to thicken on the bottom of the saucepan. Whisk constantly at this point.
- Drizzle in the heavy cream about one tablespoon at a time, about 1 tablespoon every 30 seconds). Whisk constantly. The heat should still be on low. ¼ cup heavy cream
- Whisk slowly until the mixture comes to a very low boil (just a few bubbles). This is when the soup will start to thicken. Fold in the chicken. ⅓ cup finely diced chicken
- Continue whisking and cooking until the mixture is as thick and creamy as you'd like it. Then remove from the heat.
- Add the butter and mix until the butter is melted. 1 teaspoon salted butter-
- To make condensed soup: Continue to cook the mixture down until it is thicker. If you run a rubber spatula in the bottom of the pan, it should stay clean for several seconds before the soup comes together again. Then remove from the heat and add the butter.
