   • If using leftover chicken and canned broth, skip to step 2. Otherwise, to make your broth, poach the chicken breast in 1 pint of water. If using the cooking liquid as broth, enhance the flavor by adding chopped celery and carrots to the poaching water. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the water and set aside. Strain the cooking liquid to use as your broth.

2. Simmer with Mustard:

   • In a saucepan, combine the chicken broth and honey mustard. Simmer gently until the mustard is fully blended with the broth.

3. Season and Add Peas:

   • Season the broth with freshly cracked white pepper and a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon for added depth of flavor. Add the frozen baby peas to the pan and then remove from heat.

4. Prepare Cream Mixture:

   • In a separate bowl, mix the heavy cream and cornstarch until well combined.

5. Combine Ingredients:

   • Gradually pour the cream mixture into the saucepan with the broth and peas, stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming.

6. Add Chicken:

   • Once the cream mixture is fully incorporated and the soup begins to thicken slightly, add the cooked cubed chicken breast to the pan.

7. Finish Cooking:

   • Return the saucepan to low heat and continue stirring until the soup is heated through and thickened to your desired consistency. Be careful to keep the heat gentle to avoid curdling the cream.

8. Serve:

   • Ladle the honey mustard soup into bowls and serve hot.

9. Optional Serving Suggestions:

   • For added texture and flavor, try serving the soup with cinnamon raisin bagel bites or croutons on the side.

10. Enjoy!
