About this Recipe
Herbes de Provence is a classic French blend of garden herbs including marjoram, savory, chervil, thyme, dill weed, and tarragon. These delicate herbs give the broth a layered flavor and season the vegetables with a light touch. Every bite is a different texture with pops of salt from the capers.
This soup can be easily made vegan using veggie stock, or if you want to indulge, add a splash of cream to your bowl for a chowder like soup that is perfect for dipping crusty bread.
Instructions
1
In a 6-8 qt soup pot over medium-high heat, add the butter and leeks.
2
Sauté until translucent, then add sliced mushrooms. Stir until mushrooms have softened, about 1 minute.
3
Next add the potatoes, garlic salt and chicken stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender. In the last 2 minutes of cooking, add the sugar snap peas, Herbes de Provence, capers, and brine.
4
Adjust seasonings to taste. Serve immediately to maintain the bright color and texture of the vegetables.
5
Have leftover chicken in your refrigerator? Add cut up or shredded chicken to this recipe for a heartier soup.
