Ingredients

  • 2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 2 tablespoons instant chicken bouillon and seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
  • 4 cups 2% low-fat milk
  • 2 cups frozen peas and carrots
  • 2 cups shredded cooked rotisserie chicken or 2 cups chopped cooked rotisserie chicken
  • salt, to taste

Method

  • Steam potatoes until cooked (I steamed them in the microwave for about 5 minutes).
  • Meanwhile, spray large soup pot or Dutch oven with non-stick cooking spray. Cook onion and garlic until translucent.
  • Add butter; when melted, whisk in flour, bouillon and white pepper. Cook for about 1 minute, then slowly add milk, whisking well to blend, and bring to a simmer. Cook for another minute.
  • Stir in chicken, peas and carrots, and potatoes. Cook for about 1 minute. If too thick, add a little milk. Add additional salt, if desired.
