Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 cups Broccoli florets
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 6 cups Chicken broth
• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 1.5 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Onion, finely diced

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the pot. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pot and let it rest. Once cooled, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces.

Step 3

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and butter to the same pot. Stir in the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and fragrant.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, stirring for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.

Step 5

Slowly whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 6

Add the broccoli florets to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes, until tender but still vibrant green.

Step 7

Stir in the heavy cream and shredded chicken, allowing the soup to heat through gently.

Step 8

Slowly add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until melted and smooth.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.

Step 10

Serve hot, optionally garnished with more Parmesan or a sprinkle of chopped parsley. Enjoy!
