Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter unsalted
  • 1 cup red onion chopped
  • 2 celery chopped, stalks
  • 2 carrot chopped
  • kosher salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste, ground
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups chicken broth low-sodium
  • ½ cup ranch dressing
  • ¼ cup buffalo sauce plus more to taste
  • 1 ½ pounds chicken breast boneless, skinless
  • 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature and cut into cubes
  • green onions for garnish, chopped, crumbles
  • blue cheese for garnish, chopped, crumbles

Instructions

  1. In a Dutch oven set over medium-high heat, melt the oil and butter together. Add the onion, celery, and carrots, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 5-6 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  2. Add the flour, stirring to coat the vegetables.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth, ranch, and Buffalo sauce.
  4. Add the chicken breasts to the pot. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked.
  5. Remove the chicken, transfer to a bowl to cool slightly, then shred or chop it.
  6. Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the softened cream cheese cubes, stirring well until the cheese is melted and incorporated.
  7. Add the shredded chicken back to the pot, stir well, and cook until warmed through. For a spicier soup, add more Buffalo sauce. Serve garnished with green onions and blue cheese.

Notes

  • Storage: Store soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I don't recommend freezing this soup because when frozen and thawed, creamy soups can become grainy.
