Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups evaporated milk you can use regular milk* in a pinch, it just won't be quite as creamy
  • ¾ cup chicken broth
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 4 tablespoons cornstarch
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3 tablespoons cooked finely chopped chicken optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all ingredients except butter and chicken in a cold saucepan and whisk well.
  2. Place over medium heat and continue whisking until thickened.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in butter. Season with salt & pepper to taste and stir in minced chicken if using.
  4. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Notes

  • Evaporated milk can be replaced with regular milk, light cream, or half and half.
  • Yield: This recipe makes the equivalent of two cans of condensed cream of chicken soup.
  • Storage: Refrigerate for up to 4 days.
  • Use: This condensed soup will thicken when refrigerated. It can be added to soups or casseroles in place of condensed soup. 
  • Slow cooker use: If using regular milk, this recipe will curdle in the slow cooker. If you plan to use this in a slow cooker, use evaporated milk. This recipe will be slightly thicker than store bought canned soup if cooked in the slow cooker so you may need to add a little bit of broth or water to your finished dish.

  • Do not freeze.
