Recipe: Chicken Pot Pie Soup

Posted by Nicole Doud on

I'm feeling a little tired of the same soup recipes from the winter - so it's time to change it up! I recently found this delicious recipe from The Clean Eating Couple for Chicken Pot Pie Soup.

Ingredients: 

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil 
  • 1 lb. chicken breast about 2 larger breasts
  • 1 cup celery 1 inch pieces
  • 1 cup carrot 1 inch pieces
  • 1 cup onion finely chopped
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic finely minced
  • 2 cups yukon gold potatoes peeled+ cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 cup yukon gold potatoes peeled+ cut into quarters so that you can remove them at the end
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt 
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 3 cups chicken broth or bone broth- low sodium!
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
  • 3 tablespoons parsley for garnish
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice almond milk, whole milk, any milk will work

Directions in Crockpot: 

  • Heat olive oil in a pan on the stove. Add in the celery, carrot, onion, garlic, salt and pepper, parsley and basil.  Sauté for 2 minutes or until slightly translucent. (This step is optional, but recommended!)
  • Layer raw chicken, cooked vegetables, and potatoes in the crockpot. Add chicken broth. Cover + set to low for 6 hours.
  • Once cooked, remove the large potato pieces + chicken breasts.
  • Place large potato quarters, milk + 1/2 cup of broth *from the pot* (a few ladels full!) into a blender until smooth. Add back into the pot.
  • Place chicken on a cutting board and shred.  Put the chicken back into the pot. 
  • Stir everything together until combined and smooth. Garnish with parsley and serve.
