In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, celery, and carrot. Cook until onion is translucent and vegetables are softened, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chicken breasts to the pot. Pour in the chicken broth, ensuring the chicken is fully submerged.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the pot, shred it using two forks, and return it to the pot.
Stir in the heavy cream and softened cream cheese until the cream cheese is fully melted and the soup is smooth.
Add the frozen peas, salt, black pepper, thyme, and basil. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
Sprinkle the xanthan gum gradually into the soup while constantly stirring for a few minutes until the soup thickens to your desired consistency.
Adjust seasoning to taste before serving.
Serve hot, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired.
