Make this easy pot pie soup in one pot. You get tender shredded chicken and mixed vegetables in a rich, creamy broth, capturing the classic pot pie flavor without the crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk or half-and-half for extra richness
  • 3 cups cooked, shredded chicken (use rotisserie chicken for ease)
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (optional, for extra creaminess)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  2. Stir in the dried thyme and rosemary. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir constantly for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste. This creates the roux base.
  4. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth until smooth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally until the broth thickens slightly.
  5. Stir in the milk or half-and-half. Continue to heat gently, but do not let it boil rapidly.
  6. Add the shredded chicken, frozen peas, and frozen corn to the pot. Cook until the chicken is heated through and the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
  7. If using, stir in the heavy cream for a richer texture. Season generously with salt and black pepper to your preference.
  8. Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a high-protein version, increase the amount of shredded chicken used in the recipe.
  • If you prefer a thicker soup, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir this slurry into the simmering soup until it reaches your desired consistency.
  • Serve this soup with crusty bread or biscuits on the side for dipping, mimicking the pot pie experience.
