Rinse the wild rice under cold water and set aside. Prepare the onion, garlic, mushrooms, carrots, and celery.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until translucent.
Add the mushrooms, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened.
Stir in the wild rice and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 45 minutes.
Add the shredded chicken and heavy cream. Stir and heat for 3-5 minutes without boiling.
Season with salt and pepper, ladle into bowls, and garnish with parsley. Serve hot.
