Stir in cornstarch and cook for 1 minute.
Pour in chicken broth and simmer for 5–7 minutes, until vegetables begin to soften.
Add potatoes and cook another 10–15 minutes, until tender.
Whisk coconut cream (or heavy cream) with a few tablespoons of hot broth until smooth.
Stir into the soup.
Add shredded chicken back in, stir, and simmer for a few minutes.
