Ingredients:

2.67 tbsp olive oil
2 chicken breasts
2 onions
3 carrots
1 tbsp fresh thyme
2 chicken broth cubes
2 cups mushrooms
1/2 cup greek yogurt
1 garlic clove

Creamy Chicken Yogurt Soup is a delightful and nutritious meal that combines tender chicken, fresh vegetables, and the tangy richness of Greek yogurt. Perfect for a cozy night in or a family dinner, this soup is both hearty and healthy.

Instructions:

1. Heat Oil: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

2. Cook Chicken: Add the diced chicken breasts to the pot, seasoning lightly with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned and no longer pink in the center, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.

3. Sauté Vegetables: In the same pot, add the chopped onions and sliced carrots. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onions are translucent and the carrots are beginning to soften.

4. Add Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the pot and sauté for another minute until fragrant.

5. Add Mushrooms: Stir in the sliced mushrooms, and cook until they begin to soften, approximately another 4-5 minutes.

6. Prepare Broth: Dissolve the chicken broth cubes in 4 cups of warm water, then pour the broth into the pot. Add the fresh thyme.

7. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

8. Add Chicken and Season: Return the cooked chicken to the pot. Stir in the Greek yogurt until fully incorporated and the soup becomes creamy. Add the lemon juice, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

9. Serve: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and serve immediately. Garnish with additional fresh thyme if desired.

Tips:

- Ensure the chicken breasts are fully cooked before adding the other ingredients to maintain a safe cooking environment.

- To prevent the yogurt from curdling, add it slowly and at room temperature while stirring continuously.

- Adjust the thickness of the soup by adding more or less chicken broth based on your preference.

- For added flavor, sauté the garlic and onions until they are golden brown before adding them to the soup.

- You can garnish the soup with fresh herbs or a dash of freshly ground black pepper to enhance its taste.

This Creamy Chicken Yogurt Soup is a comforting and delicious option for any meal. By following these steps and tips, you'll create a flavorful and creamy soup that is perfect for sharing with family and friends. Enjoy this scrumptious dish that balances richness and healthiness with every spoonful.
