Cheesy brocolli soup with chicken

Serves 4
65 minutes
Difficulty Easy
12 Ingredients

Amazing stringy cheesy soup even my little kids devour. Add whatever you like to it and it will still be awesome!

Ingredients (serves 4)

1 tablespoon Butter
1/2 Onion chopped
1/4 cup Melted butter
1/4 cup Flour
2 cups Milk
2 cups of Chicken stock
1 1/2 Coursely chopped brocolli
1 cup Matchstick carrots
1 stalk Celery
to taste Salt and pepper
1 breast chopped Cooked chicken
2 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese

Method

Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion in hot butter until translucent, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
Whisk 1/4 cup melted butter and flour together in a large saucepan over medium-low heat; cook until flour loses it's granular texture, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk if necessary to keep the flour from burning, 3 to 4 minutes.
Gradually pour milk into flour mixture while whisking constantly. Stir chicken stock into milk mixture. Bring to a simmer; cook until flour taste is gone and mixture is thickened, about 20 minutes. Add broccoli, carrots, sauteed onion, and celery; simmer until vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
Stir Cheddar cheese & cooked chicken into vegetable mixture until cheese melts. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Such a great idea to add stringy cheese to get the kids to eat this, quite a few hidden veggies in here too

Yum, we love brocolli soup and -pies and -oven dishes. Personally I make Brocolli soup without chicken and I like the use chick pea flour instead of normal flour to add some more nutrients.
