1. Cook the Vegetables
Heat 1 tablespoon of light butter in a large pot over medium-high heat.
Add onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 3 minutes.
Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

2. Make the Roux
Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of light butter to the pot.
Sprinkle in the flour, stirring constantly for 2 minutes to cook out the raw flavor.

3. Add Broth and Seasonings
Slowly pour in the chicken broth, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
Add the potatoes, bay leaf, chicken bouillon, salt, pepper, and all the spices (parsley, oregano, basil, thyme, sage). Stir to combine.

4. Simmer the Soup
Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low.
Simmer for 15–20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

5. Add Chicken
Stir in the cooked chicken and simmer for another 5 minutes.

6. Thicken the Soup
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and half-and-half (or your milk of choice) until smooth.
Gradually stir the mixture into the soup, ensuring there are no lumps.

7. Finish Cooking
Continue to simmer the soup, stirring occasionally, until it thickens (about 5–8 minutes).
Stir in the frozen peas and cook for another 2 minutes.
Remove the bay leaf before serving.

Serve and Garnish

Ladle the soup into bowls.
Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme, if desired.
Pair with warm biscuits for an extra treat.
