Method
Preparation
- Heat a Dutch oven or soup pot over medium/high heat and melt in 6 Tbsp of butter.
- Add the chopped onion, chopped celery, and sliced carrots. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until softened and lightly golden.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and garlic. Sauté for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until softened.
- Add 1/3 cup of flour and stir constantly for 1 minute until golden.
Cooking
- Add 6 cups of chicken stock, sliced potatoes, 3-4 tsp of salt (or to taste), and 1/2 tsp of black pepper. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer, partially cover, and cook for 12-15 minutes or just until potatoes are tender.
- Add shredded chicken, frozen peas, frozen corn, 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream, and 1/4 cup of parsley. Bring back to a simmer and continue to cook for another 5 minutes or until peas and corn are tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper and remove from heat.
Serving
- Serve Chicken Pot Pie Soup hot in bowls, garnished with extra chopped parsley. It pairs well with crusty bread or biscuits for a complete meal.
Notes
For extra flavor, sauté the vegetables in the butter until they are golden brown. For a thicker soup, add more flour or reduce chicken stock. Customize with your favorite vegetables like green beans or bell peppers.
