Directions:
- Cut chicken into 1/2 inch cubes.
- In a zip top bag, combine dried thyme, salt and pepper, and toss with chicken. Set aside.
- Rinse asparagus, and remove tough stems. Cut into 1/2 inch pieces.
- In a large soup pot over medium high heat, add the olive oil. Add chicken and cook until lightly browned on all sides.
- Add the asparagus and garlic and saute until slightly soft.
- Push chicken and asparagus to the edge of the pot. Add butter and allow to melt. Stir in flour with a whisk. Whisk for 1 minute.
- Pour in chicken stock, and stir well to combine. Bring to a boil.
- Add half and half or cream, stir to combine.
- Using an immersion blender, blend until mixture thickens slightly and turns a bit green.
- Add shredded cheese, stir until it melts.
- If the soup is too thin, add the potato flakes and allow to thicken. If you prefer, you could add wild rice instead.
- If you like it the way it is, add salt and pepper to taste, and serve with warm, crusty bread.
- Enjoy!
