You need

To buy

  • 1 small bunch fresh thyme or parsley
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

From your shelf

  • 1 can (10.75 oz) Campbell's chicken noodle condensed soup

Staples

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 small onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper

  1. Dice 1 small onion and mince 2 cloves garlic. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a large pot over medium heat until foaming, then add the onion and garlic, stirring until the onion softens, about 3 minutes.
  2. Pour in the 1 can of Campbell's chicken noodle soup and 1 can of water (use the empty soup can), then stir well. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes.
  3. Stir in 1/4 cup heavy cream and a small handful of fresh thyme or parsley leaves. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then cook for 2 minutes until warmed through.

Note Swap the cream for a splash of soy sauce and chilli oil for a different mood. Leftovers keep covered in the fridge for three days; reheat gently on the stove. Serve with crusty bread or oyster crackers on the side.
