- 1 medium onion chopped
- 3 sticks of butter divided
- 2 8 ounce packages of fresh mushrooms, sliced (white or baby portabella or both!)
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 quart Half & Half or Cream both work great!
- 1 quart rich chicken stock
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
In a skillet over medium heat melt 1 stick of butter and add the onion. Saute until onion is tender and translucent. (5-10 minutes)
Add mushrooms and cook until liquid begins to come out. Remove from heat.
In a dutch oven over medium heat, melt 2 sticks of butter.
Whisk in flour, to form a roux.
Add cream, and continue whisking. Let thicken for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add chicken stock, mushroom mixture, salt and pepper to dutch oven.
Warm for another 15-20 minutes. Soup will thicken a little more while warming. Stir occasionally so it doesn't stick, and avoid bringing to a boil.
