2 tablespoons olive oil
2 shallots or 1 small onion, chopped
2 packages (10 ounces each) mushrooms, chopped
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 cans (14 1/2 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth
plus 1 1/2 cans water
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1. Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add
shallots, mushrooms and thyme. Cook 10 minutes, until
mushroom pieces are lightly browned. Add chicken
broth and water. Reduce heat; simmer 10 minutes.
Remove from heat; add cream. Puree in batches in a
blender. Return soup to pot; add salt and pepper to
taste. Stir in lemon juice before serving.
Pureed soups are easy and foolproof. You can use a food
processor to chop the shallots and mushrooms. The touch of
lemon juice added at the end adds the right acidic note. Atkins - Creamy Mushroom Soup
