Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Butter
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 4 cups Chicken or vegetable broth
• 14 ounces Canned artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 4 cups Fresh spinach, roughly chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large pot, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until melted and bubbling.

Step 2

Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it becomes soft and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the onion and garlic mixture, stirring constantly, to create a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 5

Slowly whisk in the chicken or vegetable broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until slightly thickened.

Step 6

Add the chopped artichoke hearts and heavy cream to the pot, stirring to combine. Let the soup simmer gently for 5 minutes.

Step 7

Stir in the chopped spinach, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted.

Step 8

Taste the soup and adjust seasoning as needed.

Step 9

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
