Chicken Pot Pie Soup: The Ultimate Comfort Food in a Bowl

Chicken Pot Pie Soup: The Ultimate Comfort Food in a Bowl


Description

This Chicken Pot Pie Soup transforms traditional pot pie into a comforting, creamy soup that’s quick and easy to make, full of tender chicken, hearty vegetables, and rich flavors.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup onion, chopped
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 3 cups rotisserie chicken, diced
  • 1 cup green beans, cut
  • 1/2 cup carrots, sliced
  • 1/3 cup green peas (optional but highly recommended)
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1/41/2 teaspoon kosher salt (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum (for thickening)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat.
  2. Add the minced garlic, chopped onion, and diced celery. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften and the onions become translucent.
  3. If using uncooked chicken thighs, add them now and cook until no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes.
  4. Add the green beans, carrots, and peas (if using) and stir to combine with other ingredients.
  5. Add the diced rotisserie chicken if using pre-cooked chicken.
  6. Pour in the chicken broth and add the salt, pepper, and dried thyme.
  7. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  8. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream.
  9. Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the soup while whisking constantly to prevent clumping. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the soup thickens slightly.
  10. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.

Notes

  • If you don’t have rotisserie chicken, uncooked diced chicken thighs work wonderfully. Just add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
  • Feel free to use frozen vegetables when fresh options aren’t available.
  • Substitute coconut cream for heavy cream for a dairy-free option.
  • Use half-and-half instead of heavy cream for a healthier version.
  • If you don’t have xanthan gum, use 2 tablespoons of flour mixed with 1/4 cup cold water as a slurry for thickening.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
