Cream of Chicken Soup

2 TBSP Butter
2 TBSP Flour
1/2 cup Chicken Stock
1 rotisserie chicken, shredded
1/2 cup Milk
salt and pepper to taste


1. Make a roux with the butter and flour. (Melt the butter in a saucepan and add flour. Let the two incorporate, stirring pretty well constantly and let cook for a minute or two to cook the flour.)
2. Slowly incorporate the stock.  Once smooth add the chicken.  Then slowly stir in the heavy cream. Continue mixing as you add everything allowing the roux to do it’s job keeping the soup thick.
3. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Make sure you taste and tweak it as need be – if you are using a homemade chicken stock, you may need to be a little more aggressive with the salt to get the flavor you’re looking for.
4. Enjoy!
