# Detailed Cooking Steps:

01 - Add sliced mushrooms and garlic to your pot. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring now and then, until mushrooms are soft.
02 - Sprinkle flour on the veggies. Keep stirring for a minute until you see a light brown color. This thickens the base nicely.
03 - Pour in chicken stock, then toss in sliced potatoes, salt, and pepper. Bring it all to a bubbling boil, lower the heat, cover lightly, and let it cook for 12-15 minutes till potatoes feel tender.
04 - Heat your pot on medium-high and melt the butter first. Then toss in chopped onion, celery, and carrots. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes till the veggies soften and get a bit golden, stirring now and then.
05 - Put in shredded chicken along with frozen peas, corn, cream, and parsley. Let it simmer for another 5 minutes to heat everything up. Taste and add more salt or pepper if needed before you turn off the heat.

# Helpful Hints:

01 - If you want it thicker, mash a few potatoes before mixing in the chicken and cream. Sprinkle extra parsley on top for a fresh touch.
02 - Feel free to change salt and pepper amounts based on what you like.
