Gluten Free Creamy Chicken Soup is a rich and hearty dish made with tender chicken, fresh vegetables, and a creamy broth that's thickened without any gluten containing ingredients! It's a perfect comfort food for cozy fall and winter nights!
In a Dutch oven or large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the onion and garlic and sauté until softened and the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir frequently.
Add in the broth and potatoes and mix thoroughly. Turn up the heat to medium high, then bring to a boil. Put the lid on and turn the heat back down to medium, letting it boil and simmer for about 8 minutes, or until the potatoes are softened.Note that if your pan doesn't hold heat well, only turn it down to the notch above medium.
Remove the lid and add in chicken, celery, carrots, salt, thyme, and parsley. Let it simmer for about 2 more minutes to fully incorporate the flavors.
In a small separate dish, mix together the heavy cream and gluten free all purpose flour, stirring rapidly with a fork.
Slowly pour the heavy cream and flour mixture into the soup, stirring as you pour. Scrape the sides off to get all pf the mixture into the soup.
Let the soup simmer for an additional 2 minutes to thicken. Serve and enjoy!
