1. Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Soup
Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 carrots, peeled and diced
- 3 celery stalks, diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Biscuits or crusty bread for serving (optional)
Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed chicken and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables have softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the vegetables and stir to coat. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, to allow the flour to cook out the raw flavor.
Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Bring the soup to a simmer.
Add the cooked chicken back to the pot, along with the frozen peas, dried thyme, and dried parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the soup simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the flavors have melded together.
Ladle the chicken pot pie soup into bowls and serve warm, with biscuits or crusty bread on the side if desired.
