1 lb chicken breast or thighs, cubed or shredded
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, diced
2 carrots, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste
1½ cups whole milk or half-and-half

In a large pot, sauté onion, carrots, and celery in butter and oil for 5–6 minutes. Add garlic.
Add chicken and cook until browned. Stir in flour and cook 2 minutes.
Gradually add broth. Stir in potatoes, thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer 15–20 minutes.
Stir in milk, peas, corn, and cooked chicken (if using pre-cooked). Simmer 5–10 minutes.
Adjust seasoning. Garnish with parsley and serve warm.
