Cream of Chicken Soup image

Developed for RSC#11. This soup knocked my socks off. I made more soon after finishing batch #1. It's so creamy - thickened with a roux and topped off with cream. The shallots & white wine make it refined & lovely while the cayenne gives it a nice kick. All while being creamy, dreamy comfort food. It's quick & easy, too. What more could you want??
