Preparation
  1. Heat olive oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery, cooking for 7–8 minutes until softened and fragrant.

  3. Add the chicken cubes and cook until they are browned on all sides.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir to coat evenly.

  8. Stir in the cheddar cheese until melted and fully incorporated.
