Easy Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Soup

A creamy, comforting, and hearty chicken pot pie soup that captures all the flavors of classic pot pie without the crust. Perfect for a cozy meal with tender chicken, vegetables, and a rich broth.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 2 medium carrots, thinly sliced into rings
  • 2 celery sticks, finely chopped
  • 8 ounces white or brown mushrooms, sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 34 teaspoons salt (or to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 pound Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch thick pieces
  • 5 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped, plus more for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion, carrots, celery, and mushrooms. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well to coat. Cook for 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
  5. Gradually whisk in the chicken stock, ensuring no lumps form.
  6. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
  7. Add the sliced potatoes and bring the soup to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
  8. Stir in the shredded chicken, frozen peas, and corn. Cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
  9. Pour in the whipping cream and stir to combine. Heat gently without boiling.
  10. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley.
  11. Serve hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.

Notes

For a thicker soup, you can add a bit more flour at the beginning or simmer a little longer. Use leftover cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken for convenience. This soup pairs well with freshly baked biscuits or crusty bread.
