Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat a dutch oven or soup pot over medium/high heat and melt in 6 Tbsp butter.
  2. Add the chopped onion, chopped celery, and sliced carrots and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and lightly golden.
  3. Add sliced mushrooms and garlic and sauté for another 5 minutes until softened.
  4. Add 1/3 cup flour and stir constantly for 1 minute until golden.
  5. Add 6 cups chicken stock, sliced potatoes, 3 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste), and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Bring to a boil.
Cooking
  1. Reduce heat to a simmer, partially cover the pot, and cook for 12-15 minutes or just until potatoes are tender.
  2. Add shredded chicken, frozen peas, frozen corn, 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream, and 1/4 cup parsley. Bring back to a simmer.
  3. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes or until peas and corn are tender.
