Instructions

Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and carrots and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes. Stir in flour until well combined.
Slowly pour in chicken broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer.
Stir in rice, chicken, salt, curry powder, mustard powder, parsley, black pepper, almonds, and sherry.
Heat thoroughly, then stir in half-and-half. Simmer for 1 to 2 hours, being careful not to boil, as this can cause the roux to separate.
Serve and enjoy this delicious soup!
