Peel and dice the potatoes. Place in a bowl and cover with cold water. Set aside to soak while you continue the recipe.
1 pound yukon gold potatoes
Clean the mushrooms. Cut smaller mushrooms into quarters and larger mushrooms into sixths or eighths.
8 ounces cremini mushrooms
In a large dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms along with a pinch of salt. Saute until the mushrooms have reduced in volume and are golden brown. Remove from the pot and set aside.
3 tablespoons olive oil
Return the pot to medium heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the butter, along with the diced onion and carrot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion starts to soften and turn translucent, about 5 minutes.
3 tablespoons olive oil, 4 tablespoons salted butter, 1 large onion, 2 large carrots
Add the garlic and cook 1 more minute. Add the flour, stirring to coat all of the vegetables. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, then slowly stir in the chicken stock.
Drain the potatoes; add them to the pot along with the salt, pepper, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow to simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are cooked through and tender.
1 teaspoon fine sea salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon dried thyme
Add the corn, peas, chicken, sauteed mushrooms, and cream. Cook for another 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until hot. Taste and add additional salt and pepper as desired.
