Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 2 carrots diced
  • 2 celery stalks diced
  • 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon of dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon of salt to taste
  • ½ teaspoon of pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup of all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups of chicken broth
  • 2 cups of cooked chicken shredded or diced
  • 1 cup of frozen peas
  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • 1 refrigerated pie crust
  • Parsley to garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and garlic, sautéing them until they’re softened and fragrant, for about 3-4 minutes.
  • Incorporate the diced carrots and celery into the pot, stirring occasionally. Let them cook until slightly softened, approximately 5 minutes.
  • Add the dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to the pot, stirring the mixture to combine the flavors evenly.
  • Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the vegetables, stirring continuously for about 2 minutes to cook off the raw taste of the flour.
  • Slowly pour in the chicken broth, stirring constantly to prevent any lumps from forming. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil while continuing to stir.
  • Once the broth is gently boiling, add the cooked chicken and frozen peas. Let the soup simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavours to meld together.
  • Pour in the heavy cream, stirring well to incorporate it into the soup. Let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the soup thickens slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  • Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the pie crust package.
  • Ladle the soup into oven-safe bowls.
  • Unroll the pie crust and cut it into rounds that are slightly larger than the diameter of the bowls.
  • Place the pie crust rounds on top of each bowl, pressing the edges to seal.
  • Bake the bowls in the preheated oven until the crust turns golden brown, which usually takes around 10-15 minutes. Once done, remove the bowls from the oven. Garnish the soup with parsley, if desired, and let it cool slightly before serving.
