  • 1 cup fresh broccoli florets chopped
  • 0.25 cup all purpose flour
  • 0.75 cup chicken broth

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a large pot, melt butter over medium high heat. Add onions, celery and broccoli and cook to soften about 3-5 minutes. Sprinkle with flour and cook an additional minute, stirring constantly. Slowly add broth, milk, cream, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Use a whisk to combine, then add in cooked chicken. Heat over medium heat until warm, about 10-15 minutes.
  2. To make crust strips, unroll thawed pie crust. Cut into strips and lay on parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake in a 450°F oven for 6-8 minutes, until browned. Remove from oven.
  3. To assemble, pour soup into bowls and top with shredded cheese and pieces of pie crust strips. Enjoy!
