Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by cutting the boneless skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, ensuring uniformity for even cooking. Dice the yellow onion finely, mince the garlic cloves, and chop the potatoes into ½-inch cubes. Finally, dice the celery into ¼-inch pieces.
  2. Mix the Seasoning: In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, paprika, black pepper, and dried rosemary. Mixing these herbs and spices together will blend their flavors.
  3. Make the Roux: In a medium saucepan, melt unsalted butter over medium heat. Whisk in the all-purpose flour for about 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly to form a roux. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, cooking until thickened.
  4. Combine Ingredients in Slow Cooker: After thickening the roux, stir in the prepared spice mixture. Transfer the sauce to a slow cooker and add the chicken pieces, chopped potatoes, diced celery, onion, minced garlic, and frozen mixed vegetables. Gently stir.
  5. Cook the Soup: Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 4-5 hours.
  6. Finish with Cream and Garnish: Once the Soup is cooked, stir in the heavy cream, adjusting the seasoning to taste. Sprinkle in some fresh parsley and thyme.
