Back to soups.........this is such a special soup, you will want to serve it for a special occasion or for a late night indulgence by the fire. I always think of my dear friend, Amy, when I make wild rice. Wild rice, which of course isn't really rice, is one of my fondest foods........any way that it is fixed.
In a skillet with some melted butter, saute about 1/2 cup of chopped carrots, onions and celery. When soft add about 4 cups of chicken broth and 3/4 cup wild rice..............bring to a boil and then to simmer for about 30 min. Then add about 1 to 2 cups cooked chicken that you cubed up. Simmer tog for about another 30 min.
Now make a paste with 2 Tblsp of butter and 2 Tblsp of flour.........mush it up real well and stir into the soup to thicken. Now add about 2 cups of half and half...........boy is this rich! Just heat through and season with salt and pepper............my mouth is watering........
