Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, chopped into small pieces
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup diced celery
- 1/2 cup diced carrots
- 3 cups diced potatoes

- 1/4 cup flour
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, and carrots and cook until they are softened, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the potatoes and cook until they are lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Add the flour and stir until it is combined and lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
