Chicken Pot Pie Soup Recipe (2024)

Years ago when my son was 13, he ordered Chicken Pot Pie Soup at a steak house we were having lunch at. That boy loves my Chicken Pot Pie recipe, so when I saw how much he was enjoying the soup, you know I ran home and replicated it, lol!

My daughter and I are both smitten this pot pie soup now as well. These days, this soup recipe is at the very top of comfort food recipe list to make for my family in the cold months.I literally sit in my chair and make yum-mmm noises every time I eat it, every time. Truth!

Even though my son is now 21, I get big smiles and a bear hug from my him when I slide a bowl of this delicious and comforting Chicken Pot Pie Soup in front of him.When they come home from college, this, as well as this flavor packed Tortellini Soup, are the first things they want!

It's a soup fest that first fall weekend they come home and I love it!!

My son will come back for bowl after bowl throughout the day and he'll keep saying "mom, moooommmm!!" "This soup is the best" Memories like that, well they are the closest to my heart (and I hope his too!).

Ingredients

• onion
• flour

Soup Tips

• When you add the flour to the butter and onions in your pot, whisk all around and then gradually add in your stock.
• If you are adding in potatoes (Which you totally can, it stretches the soup further and its tasty) cut them into small, uniformed cubes. Place them in when you add the onions.
• Since potatoes need to cook a bit, add in an extra ¼ cup or so of broth.
• I like to use a bag (or part of a bag) of frozen carrots and peas. No chopping necessary.
• Customize this as you wish. Add more or less broth based on how thick or thin you want the soup.
• If towards the end, you want it thicker. Scoop out ¼ cup of the soup and add in a ½ TBS of flour or so. Mix that till smooth and stir it back into the soup. If you want it thinner, add more broth.
• Taste and adjust adding in more seasoning if you choose.
• I like my soup a little spicy, so I add in red (cayenne) pepper and a lot of black pepper.
• Using a rotisserie chicken helps this soup get made really fast. Then save the carcass and whatever meat is left and make stock. Then add meat back in, noodles etc. for chicken noodles soup OR more chicken pot pie soup, lol!
• Add chicken at the end, all you want to do is warm it through and not cook it again and run the risk of it drying out.

Pot Pie Soup Variations

• Make this a turkey pot pie soup recipe by swapping the shredded chicken for shredded turkey.
• Change this to a vegetable pot pie by leaving out the meat and increasing the vegetables used.
