Description
Chicken Pot Pie Soup brings all the creamy, cozy flavors of the classic dish—without the crust! It’s easy to make, loaded with tender chicken, veggies, and potatoes, and perfect for chilly nights or family dinners.
Ingredients
6 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion, chopped (1 cup)
2 carrots, thinly sliced
2 celery stalks, finely chopped
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
6 cups chicken stock
3–4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick
5 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley + more for garnish
Instructions
- In a heavy Dutch oven or large soup pot over medium‑high heat, melt the butter. Add chopped onion, celery, and sliced carrots. Sauté for 5‑7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and just starting to turn golden.
- Add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic. Continue to sauté about 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms soften and release their juices.
- Sprinkle in the all‑purpose flour. Stir constantly for about 1 minute, until the flour is golden—this helps thicken the soup.
- Pour in the chicken stock. Add sliced potatoes, 3½ teaspoons salt (or to taste), and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, partially cover, and let simmer 12‑15 minutes, or until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Stir in shredded chicken, frozen peas, and corn. Pour in the whipping cream and the ¼ cup chopped parsley. Return to a simmer and cook for another 5 minutes, until peas and corn are heated through and tender.
- Taste, adjust salt and pepper as needed. Remove from heat. Garnish with additional parsley before serving.
Notes
Use rotisserie or leftover chicken to save time.
To freeze: leave out cream, add it when reheating.
Swap potatoes with sweet potatoes or add spinach for variety.
