0 In a large pot over medium-high heat, melt the butter with a splash of olive oil. Add the celery, onions, and carrots, and sauté for about 10 minutes until they begin to soften. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute on low heat.
1 Lower the heat and sprinkle in the flour. Mix well and cook, stirring often, for 2–3 minutes. Gradually pour in the chicken broth, add the diced chicken and seasonings, and whisk until smooth with no lumps. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
2 Add the uncooked rice and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender.
3 Turn off the heat and stir in the heavy whipping cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve and enjoy!
