  • 2 leeks - white parts only, halved lengthwise and sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons chicken bouillon base (such as Better Than Bouillon®)
  • 8 cups hot water
  • 1 cup wild rice (such as Lundberg Wild Blend®)
  • 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
  • 3/4 pound cooked rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • 3 large multi-colored carrots, halved lengthwise and sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme, or to taste


  1. Heat olive oil in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Add leeks, onion, and garlic. Saute until fragrant, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add chicken bouillon to hot water to dissolve. Add to the onion-leek mixture. Add rice and poultry seasoning. Stir well, cover, and reduce heat. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 45 minutes.
