08 - 1 cup frozen corn
09 - 1 cup frozen peas

→ Velvet & Spice

10 - 1/2 cup heavy cream
11 - 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
12 - 1 tsp dried thyme
13 - 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
14 - Salt and black pepper to taste

→ Fresh Flourish

15 - 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

# Instructions:

01 - Place 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts into a 6-quart crockpot. Add 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth, 1 large yellow onion (chopped), 2 cups carrots (chopped), 1 cup celery (chopped), 4 cloves garlic (minced), and 2 cups Yukon gold potatoes (diced). Season with 1 tsp dried thyme, 1/2 tsp dried rosemary, and salt and black pepper to taste. This forms the base for your 20+ Cozy & Comforting Crockpot Soup Recipes.
02 - Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 7 hours (420 minutes), or on high for 3.5 hours. Ensure the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender before proceeding to the next step.
03 - Carefully remove the cooked chicken breasts from the crockpot and place them on a cutting board. Using two forks, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces. Set the shredded chicken aside for later.
04 - In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup heavy cream and 2 tbsp all-purpose flour until smooth. Pour this mixture into the crockpot, stirring well to combine. This will help thicken your 20+ Cozy & Comforting Crockpot Soup Recipes to a creamy consistency.
05 - Stir in 1 cup frozen corn and 1 cup frozen peas into the soup. Continue to cook on high for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the soup has slightly thickened and the frozen vegetables are heated through.
06 - Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot and stir to incorporate. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Ladle generous portions of your delicious 20+ Cozy & Comforting Crockpot Soup Recipes into bowls.
07 - Garnish each serving with 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped, for a burst of color and freshness. Serve hot with crusty bread or crackers for a truly comforting and satisfying meal.

# Notes:

01 - For an extra layer of flavor, consider quickly searing the chicken breasts in a hot pan for 2-3 minutes per side before adding them to the crockpot. This creates a delicious browned crust.
02 - Leftover soup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It also freezes well for up to 3 months; thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
03 - Feel free to swap Yukon gold potatoes for red potatoes or even sweet potatoes for a different flavor profile. You can also add other vegetables like chopped bell peppers or spinach during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
04 - This soup is wonderfully hearty on its own, but pairs perfectly with a fresh green salad or a grilled cheese sandwich for a complete and satisfying meal.
