  5. Once boiling, reduce heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes.
  6. Fold in the shredded chicken and frozen peas. If a thicker soup is desired, stir cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry, then add it to the pot.
  7. Let it simmer for another 5-10 minutes until thickened.
  8. Stir in the heavy cream. Adjust seasoning to taste.
