Ingredients for Chicken Pot Pie Soup

The key to making great chicken pot pie soup, is to adequately season. Be sure to taste and season at the end.

  • Aromatics Onions, carrots, celery, and garlic are cooked in butter as a base for flavoring the soup.
  • Mushrooms – sauteeing until golden adds a boost of flavor
  • Flour – just 1/3 cup thickens the soup to make it creamy
  • Chicken Stock – homemade bone broth will taste best, but storebought works.
  • Potatoes – we used Yukon gold
  • Chicken – light or dark meat works great
  • Peas and Corn – we use frozen peas and corn since we stock them in our freezer, but canned corn will also work.
  • Cream – heavy or regular whipping cream or even a light cream would work if you want a leaner soup.
  • Parsley – we love it in the soup for flavor and garnish with it to add color and freshness.

How to Cook the Chicken

We love using leftover rotisserie to make Chicken pot pie soup. You can use cooked chicken breasts or a store-bought Rotisserie Chicken. If you want to cook your own chicken, our go-to recipes are:

How to Make Chicken Pot Pie Soup

Once you have all of your ingredients chopped and prepped, cooking this soup is easier than you think.

  1. Saute vegetables – melt butter and sautee onion, celery, and carrots and saute for 5 minutes until softened.
  2. Add mushrooms and garlic and saute 5 minutes.
  3. Add flour and saute 1 minute
  4. Add broth and potatoes – season with salt and pepper and simmer until potatoes are tender.
  5. Add Chicken, peas, corn, cream, and parsley – simmer 5 minutes.
  6. Season to taste and serve.

Kitchen Tip: A dutch oven is one of our favorite kitchen tools for making soup. This 5 1/2 Qt Dutch Oven is one of our most used tools. It conducts heat well and can go from the stove to the oven. A good pot can last a lifetime.

Serve With

Chicken pot pie soup is so hearty and loaded with tender chicken, potatoes, and veggies. It really is a meal in itself. We love to pair it with:

Common Questions

Can I substitute the chicken?

You can substitute chicken with shredded leftover turkey meat for a turkey pot pie, or use diced cooked ham.

Can I make this gluten free?

You can use corn starch instead of flour. Combine 1/2 cup cold water with 2 Tbsp corn starch. Stir that slurry in with the cream in the last 5 minutes and let it simmer and thicken the soup.

How do I thicken chicken pot pie?

You can add a slurry of corn starch in water (see gluten-free tip above), adding it to reach your desired thickness.

Make-Ahead

Chicken pot pie will keep well in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days, depending on the freshness of your chicken. The USDA recommends refrigerating cooked chicken for 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop until hot.

I hope this Chicken Pot Pie Soup will become a new favorite for you. The best part is, you don’t have to spend time making a crust or wait for it to bake in the oven like you would a classic pot pie before you can enjoy it.

    Love a recipe with all natural ingredients! We omitted the cream and corn for dietary needs and there was no need to substitute. Paired it with a spring mix salad and a toasted baguette – Delicious! Thank you!

      Hi Ellen! I haven’t tested this in a crockpot. I think it can work fine, but I don’t have specific instructions for you. Let us know if you try it.

    I love love love this one, Natasha!!! Thank you!!! I’ve made it many times but this time I am wondering if it freezes okay if I left the heavy cream out and add it when I reheat it. I’m looking to vac seal the soup once it’s cooked to store it for my mom who just had surgery! Thank you!!!

      Hi Connie! I haven’t fried freezing it but that should be fine. One of my readers wrote: “I make this soup all the time, it is one of my family’s favorites! I also freeze it, and it freezes and heats back up very well.”

    So good! I had half and half and half the broth/stock was vegetable, so I used it and it was still lovely. I added some baby spinach to the soup because I like it. Seriously a lovely soup!
