Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once shimmering, add the diced chicken thighs and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes until browned.
  2. Stir in chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  3. Add cauliflower florets and chopped celery. Stir and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
  4. Pour in 4 cups of chicken broth along with dried thyme. Raise the heat until it comes to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  5. Stir in 1 cup of heavy cream, blending it smoothly. Allow to simmer for an additional 5 minutes, adjusting seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
  6. Ladle soup into warm bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
