There's something really comforting about chicken soups. I was really excited to try this one, since it seemed to have the right level of difficulty to make it tasty, but not take up an entire day making it. This recipe just sounded good - when reading through the ingredients I thought to myself, "well those sound like they'd be good together." Such a simple concept. Does anyone else think the word "chowder" sounds gross? Maybe it's just me. I'll keep you in suspense on this one- keep reading to find out what I ultimately thought of the recipe and this soup!
CliffNotes Version1.) Melt butter in pot 2.) Add onion, carrots, and celery 3.) Cook until tender (3-4 minutes) 4.) Add flour, then gradually add chicken broth, milk, and cook 1-2 minutes 5.) Stir in potatoes 6.) Bring to boil, reduce to simmer for 12-15 minutes 7.) Add chicken and cheese Final Review: Loving this recipe! This soup is the perfect balance of good,, flavorful ingredients, while still being easy to make! It even passed the "leftovers in my lunch test," which means that it tasted great (maybe even better) the next day. I really enjoyed the thick, creaminess of the soup without being too rich and heavy. The chicken, potato, and vegetables make such a great combination, and the cheese in there...wow. Yes, I suppose "chowder" is the correct word to use, because this does come out pretty thick.
My husband is the first person to "taste test' my soup after it's finished. He's so sincere, I can always tell when he likes the soup vs. when he LIKES the soup (because he always "likes" it). This one was definitely a winner- I could see it in his eyes :) I would definitely make this one again.
