Homemade Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup. This recipe is an updated version of a recipe I posted way back when I started RecipeTin Eats. A homemade version of Cream of Chicken Soup, light years away from the canned stuff! This version is light on the veggies.
Step by Step to make Homemade Cream of Chicken & Mushroom Soup:
- You can successfully make this soup in less than 10 minutes from pantry items and a couple refrigerated stables… Start by melting 3 tablespoons butter over a medium heat. Once melted sprinkle with 1/4 cup flour and whisk until smooth. This is going to be a roux not a gravy, so take it easy with measuring the flour, no heaping or packing here.
- Once the flour has absorbed the butter add the milk. Whisk, whisk, whisk. Once the roux thickens add the chicken broth, and you guessed it, whisk.
- Now because everything else we are adding is cooked and just needs to be brought up to temperature turn the heat to medium-low. Add the minced chicken (this can be canned, rotisserie, leftover, white meat, dark meat, chicken you cooked just because you wanted to make soup… Chicken). Then add the chopped mushrooms. I like using the ugly little canned mushrooms for this soup because it keeps soup prep to less than ten minutes. Stir! You thought I was going to say whisk didn't you….
- I dished my little ones first then added Thyme for my bowl. I hope you enjoy!
This soup makes little waste and, in a home where every penny counts, it's rather nice to eke out every bit of flavor and nourishment from what you have available to you.
