  3. Stir in the shredded chicken, chicken broth, peas, thyme, and rosemary. Bring to a simmer.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and heavy cream until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the cream mixture to the pot, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.

Notes

Can substitute chicken with turkey for a festive twist. Use vegetable broth and chickpeas for vegetarian version. For lighter option, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or plant-based milk. Consider roasting vegetables before adding for deeper flavor.
