2 cups cooked wild rice

Directions:
In a saucepan, at moderate heat, add olive oil and butter. Add the garlic, carrots, and onion. Saute until onion is clear and carrots are soft. Add chicken stock, wild rice, thyme, black and cayenne or red pepper. Add chicken and cook for 10 minutes. Add half and half. If you prefer a thicker soup, at this time you can add a roux that is made of 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup flour. Cook roux till bubbly and blond, do not allow to brown. After soup has cooked for 10 minutes add a little of the roux at a time until desired thickness is achieved. Stir in parsley and serve.

From the kitchen of Helen Sharp Miller.

This is a very thick and hearty soup. It is great the day after it is cooked.
