  3. Pour in 4 cups of low-sodium vegetable broth or chicken broth for a richer taste. Gently stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken and allow it to come to a gentle simmer.
  4. Reduce heat to low and slowly pour in 1 cup of heavy cream, stirring continuously. Add 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme along with salt and pepper to taste. Let the soup simmer for about 10 minutes.
