Step 1
Start by warming the chicken broth and water in a large pot over medium-high heat. Squeeze in the lemon juice and give it a stir, then let it cook for about 5 minutes. While that’s heating, heat some oil in a grill pan over medium-high. Toss in the red bell pepper and grill it until it softens a bit, around 3 to 5 minutes. Once it’s ready, transfer the pepper to the pot and add the tomatoes, artichokes, potato, carrot, celery, green onions, mushrooms, and garlic. Turn the heat up to high and bring everything to a boil. Let it cook until the veggies are tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the cream and wine to add richness.

Step 2
Carefully ladle the veggie and broth mixture into a blender — fill it about halfway — then pulse a few times before blending until smooth. Pour the puree into another pot, and repeat until all the soup is blended. Pour the pureed soup back into the original pot, add the chicken and some black pepper, then warm it over medium heat. Let it simmer gently until everything is heated through, about 5 minutes, and it’s ready to serve.
