    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil

    • 1 cup chopped onion

    • 3 cloves garlic, minced

    • 2 cups sliced mushrooms

    • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

    • 1 teaspoon salt

    • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

    • 4 cups chicken broth

    • 3 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded

    • 1 cup heavy cream

    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

    Directions

    • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
    • Add minced garlic to the pot and cook for 1 minute, stirring continuously to release the flavors without allowing it to burn.
    • Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced mushrooms. Cook the mushrooms for about 5 minutes until they start to brown and release their moisture.
    • Add dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the pot and stir well to ensure the mushrooms are evenly coated with the spices.
    • Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10 minutes to meld the flavors together.
    • Add shredded rotisserie chicken to the pot and stir to combine. Allow the chicken to heat through, cooking for an additional 5 minutes on low heat.
    • Stir in the heavy cream and let the soup simmer for another 2 minutes. Avoid letting the soup boil to prevent the cream from curdling.
    • Remove the pot from heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary before serving the soup warm.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

    One Costco Rotisserie Chicken, Five Completely Different Meals

    Rotisserie chicken is already a relatively lean protein, but you can make it work even harder for you with a few small swaps. Pull the skin off before shredding to cut down on saturated fat without losing any of the flavor you’ve already cooked in. When building your five meals, lean on the soup and the pasta nights to load in extra vegetables — spinach, zucchini, and kale all disappear into both dishes without anyone noticing. And that homemade stock you made from the carcass? It’s significantly lower in sodium than anything from a can, which makes a real difference across a full week of cooking.

    You’ve Been Cooking Rice Wrong Your Whole Life

    Cooling cooked rice before eating — or refrigerating and reheating it — converts a portion of its digestible starch into resistant starch, which functions similarly to dietary fiber. Resistant starch feeds beneficial gut bacteria, supports digestive health, and results in a lower glycemic response compared to freshly cooked rice eaten hot.
