Preparation method
Prep: 20 mins | Cook: 30 mins
1. Heat oil in large stockpot over medium heat. Add the next ten ingredients. Cook 8 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.
2. Stir in chicken base powder. Then add the chicken broth and cilantro, and cook until carrots are tender, about 10 minutes.
3. Now make a roux: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Slowly add flour and stir to combine. Cook, whisking constantly, 3 to 4 minutes to cook flour. Do not allow roux to brown.
4. Add 1 to 2 cups hot liquid from soup to the roux, whisking continuously to incorporate.
5. Pour thickened sauce back into stockpot, whisking to blend. Stirring frequently, cook 3 to 5 minutes or until mixture begins to thicken. Remove from heat.
6. Stir in cream and chicken. Serve.
