Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Season Chicken thighs with Salt and Pepper. Roast for 30-35 minutes, or until cooked through. Let cool slightly, then shred the Chicken.
  2. Heat Olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add Diced onion, Diced carrots, and Diced celery stalks (mirepoix) and cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Add Garlic-minced and cook for 1 minute more.
  4. Pour in Chicken broth and add Wild rice-rinsed, Dried thyme, Dried rosemary, and Bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until Wild rice is tender.
  5. Deglaze the pot with Dry sherry, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  6. While the soup simmers, make a roux. In a small saucepan, melt Butter over medium heat. Whisk in All-purpose flour and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly.
  7. Gradually whisk the roux into the simmering soup. Stir until the soup thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
  8. Add the shredded roasted Chicken to the soup.
  9. Stir in Heavy cream and heat through. Remove Bay leaf before serving.
