Cream of Leek and Potato Soup with Shredded Chicken

The world may think of the Potato as Ireland's national food but the Leek has been grown in Ireland much longer. (The potato arrived
in Ireland from South America in the latter years of the 16th century. The leek arrived in the British Isles with the Romans.)
Leek Potato Soup is a wonderful blend of these two Irish vegetables and truly warms the soul.
