Instructions
Heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat until melted.
Add the diced onion, carrot, celery, and garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
Stir in the curry powder and cook for 1 minute to bloom the spices.
Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well. Cook for another minute, stirring constantly.
Gradually whisk in the chicken stock to create a smooth, lump-free broth. Bring to a gentle boil.
Add the shredded chicken and diced apple to the pot. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
Stir in the cooked rice, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until heated through.
