Ingredients

  • 1 cup uncooked wild rice
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups milk

Equipment

  • Dutch oven or large soup pot
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Whisk

Method

  1. In a large Dutch oven or soup pot, combine the wild rice, chicken broth, and water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer for 30 minutes.
  2. Add the chicken, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir to combine. Cover the pot and simmer for another 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
  3. Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it with two forks. Return the chicken to the pot.
  4. In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is bubbly and golden. Slowly whisk in the milk, stirring constantly. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened.
  5. Stir the milk mixture into the soup pot. Bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes, or until the soup has thickened slightly.
  6. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

You can use a combination of white and wild rice if you prefer. You can also use rotisserie chicken instead of cooking your own chicken breasts.
