Perfect One-Pot Meal

This homemade Chicken Pot Pie Soup is very similar to my Chicken Pot Pie Bake, but I’ve revised the recipe so it’s even easier to prepare without the effort of making a pie crust.

This soup is always a crowd-pleaser, and it’s easy to see why. It’s like getting a warm hug from your favorite comfort food but without all the fuss. Imagine all the creamy, cozy goodness of a classic chicken pot pie, but in a spoon-ready form that’s perfect for those chilly evenings or lazy weekend lunches.

What I absolutely love about this recipe is how it takes the stress out of cooking. You don’t need to be a kitchen wizard to whip up this soup. It’s straightforward, uses everyday ingredients, and is ready in no time. It’s the kind of recipe that makes you feel like a pro, even on your busiest days, and that’s a real win in my book.

And let’s talk about flexibility! This soup is like your favorite pair of stretchy pants – it just fits, no matter what. Got some veggies you need to use up? Toss them in. Prefer a little more garlic? Go for it. It’s the kind of recipe that’s forgiving and adaptable, making it a reliable go-to in your cooking repertoire.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I serve with my Chicken Pot Pie Soup?

Chicken pot pie soup is so hearty and loaded with tender chicken, potatoes, and veggies–it is a complete meal-in-one. However, if you would like to pair it with something simple, homemade biscuits, dinner rolls, or a crusty French bread would be great.

Can I make this gluten-free?

You can use cornstarch instead of flour to make this a gluten-free soup. Combine 1/2 cup cold water with 2 tablespoons of corn starch and stir it with the cream for the last 5 minutes. Then, let it simmer and thicken the soup.

Can I freeze this Chicken Pot Pie Soup?

No, I don’t recommend freezing soups that contain a lot of dairy because they often tend to separate. Also, potatoes don’t freeze well in soups either.

    1. I like to take the chicken off, but you can leave it on if you prefer. I used the majority of a small rotisserie chicken. You can put in as much chicken as you like!
