How to Make Rotisserie Chicken Mushroom Soup
Heat the Oil
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once it shimmers (around a minute or two), it’s time to add the good stuff!Sauté the Veggies
Toss in the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until it turns translucent. The aroma of onions cooking is just heavenly! Then, stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and browned, stirring occasionally. Enjoy the wafting aromas, trust me, it’ll make you feel all warm inside!Add the Chicken and Broth
Next, add the shredded rotisserie chicken to the pot along with the chicken broth, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and let it cook for 10 minutes. Just imagine the delicious smells filling your kitchen!Stir in the Cream
Reduce the heat to low again and gently stir in the heavy cream, allowing the soup to heat through but not boiling it. Taste it, add a couple pinches of salt and pepper if needed. This is where the magic starts happening, folks!Garnish and Serve
Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy a big, cozy bowl, and maybe even some crusty bread on the side for dipping!
