Time 1h25m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 21

½ cup butter
½ cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon fresh thyme
½ teaspoon paprika
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¾ cup all-purpose flour
3 (12 ounce) cans chicken broth
⅔ cup milk
4 cups bite-sized pieces of cooked turkey
2 carrots, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
3 small potatoes, chopped
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter
¾ cup milk
8 ounces frozen peas

Steps:

  • Heat butter in a large ovenproof pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, rosemary, red pepper flakes, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook and stir until onion is translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Whisk in 3/4 cup flour, creating a paste; stir until paste begins to bubble, about 1 minute more. Add broth and milk; increase heat to medium-high. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes. Continue stirring until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes more. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add turkey, carrots, celery, and potatoes. Cover soup and simmer for 20 minutes.
