STEP 1: Saute the leek in the butter until softened. Add the chicken to the pan and saute for 3-4 minutes.

STEP 2: Add the vegetables, pour in the stock, bring to a boil, and cover. Simmer for 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

STEP 3: Puree in blender to your desired consistency.
