How to make Chicken Pot Pie Soup
Start by add a little oil to a Dutch Oven or heavy stockpot over medium heat. Then add the onion and celery cooking until soft. Then reduce heat to low and add the garlic, poultry seasoning, black pepper, rosemary and thyme. Cook for about 1 minute stirring constantly. Now turn off the heat and plate the vegetables and seasonings.
Then return the heat to medium low and melt the butter. Whisk in the flour cooking over the heat for about 2-3 minutes stirring continuously Slowly add the chicken broth while whisking. Now add the potatoes, carrots, bay leaves and the rest of the vegetables, spices and herbs that you plated. Then simmer until the potatoes and carrots are tender. Finally add the peas and chicken and let simmer for an additional 5 minutes or so. Remove from heat and stir in the heavy cream. If desired serve with homemade or store bought biscuits and garnish with parsley or thyme leaves.
Recipe notes and tips
- Any cooked shredded or cubed chicken will work for this recipe. However rotisserie chickens are available in most grocery stores, big club stores like Sams and Walmart. They are simply delicious and so tender.
- Store homemade biscuits in a zipper bag for 2-3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- For a change of pace try this soup with Homemade Croutons or Cheddar Biscuits with Chive Butter.
- I usually use Yukon gold potatoes for this recipe but in a pinch I have used Russet potatoes. I usually don’t recommend Russet Potatoes but with this recipe I really think it is fine. This soup which does not simmer ling enough for them to break down and the added starch helps thicken the soup.
- Other veggies to add include corn, green beans, and baby bella mushrooms.
- Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Do you like a little kick in almost all your recipes? Simply add a few pinches of cayenne or a little creole seasoning. It is your soup season it to suit your taste.
Can you freeze Chicken Pot Pie Soup?
Of course you can however you are not going to get the rich creamy flavor that was achieved from a fresh pot of soup so I really don’t recommend it. You can always cut the recipe in half.
