Instructions

Sauté Aromatics: Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until they turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Then stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional minute to release its aroma.
Make Roux: Sprinkle the all-purpose flour into the pot, stirring constantly for about 2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste and form a roux. This will help to thicken the soup.
Add Liquids: Gradually whisk in the chicken broth followed by the milk, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken.
Add Ingredients: Stir in the shredded cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, diced potatoes, and dried thyme. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to low and let it simmer gently until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Season: Taste the soup and add salt and freshly ground black pepper to your preference. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy the comforting flavors.

Notes

You can use rotisserie chicken or leftover cooked chicken for convenience.
Feel free to swap the frozen mixed vegetables with fresh or other your preferred vegetables.
For a richer soup, use whole milk or add a splash of heavy cream before serving.
Make sure to stir continuously while adding the flour and liquids to avoid lumps.
This soup can be reheated and often tastes better the next day as the flavors meld.
