Chicken Pot Pie Soup Recipe
Description
This soup starts with a slurry of flour (or cornstarch for gluten-free) mixed with cold water to thicken the broth. The base combines milk and water brought to a boil with diced celery, onion, sliced mushrooms, chicken bouillon, thyme, pepper, and frozen mixed vegetables. After simmering to soften the vegetables, potatoes are added and cooked until tender. Finally, cooked diced chicken is stirred in along with the slurry to thicken the soup to a creamy consistency.
The soup balances the tender chicken and mixed vegetables with a smooth, thickened broth spiced lightly with thyme and pepper, creating an easy meal that recalls chicken pot pie flavors in a spoonable form.
This dish works well as a filling lunch or dinner and can be easily adapted for gluten-free diets by substituting cornstarch for flour in the slurry.
