Ingredients

Directions

  1. Melt the unsalted butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add the diced onion and carrots to the melted butter, sautéing for 5-7 minutes until softened and slightly translucent.
  3. Pour in the chicken stock and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  4. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes to allow the vegetables to become tender and the flavors to meld.
  5. Stir in the unsalted crunchy peanuts and simmer for an additional 5 minutes to warm them through without losing their crunch.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if desired, then serve hot.
