Directions
Step 1
Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.
Step 2
In a large saucepan, melt the butter and heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Step 3
Add the chopped garlic to the saucepan and sauté gently for about 5 minutes, or until the garlic is soft and fragrant, making sure it does not brown.
Step 4
Pour the chicken broth into the saucepan and bring to a simmer.
Step 5
Add the fresh thyme and bay leaf to the soup, then reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Remove the bay leaf and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer the soup to a blender, blend until smooth, and then return it to the saucepan.
