  • Author: Lana
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 onion, chopped
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 medium carrots, diced
– 2 ribs celery, diced
– 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
– 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
– 1 cup frozen peas
– 2 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
– 1 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or regular milk)
– 1/4 cup whole wheat flour (or all-purpose flour)
– Fresh parsley, for garnish


Instructions

Creating Healthy Chicken Pot Pie Soup is a straightforward process if you follow these simple steps:

1. Heat the Oil: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Sauté Aromatics: Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
3. Add Vegetables: Stir in the diced carrots and celery. Sauté the mixture for another 5 minutes until the vegetables soften.
4. Cook Chicken: Add the cubed chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink, approximately 5-7 minutes.
5. Add Broth and Potatoes: Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
6. Thicken the Soup: In a separate bowl, whisk almond milk with whole wheat flour until smooth. Gradually add this mixture to the soup, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
7. Finish with Peas and Herbs: Stir in the frozen peas, dried thyme, and rosemary. Let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes until everything is heated through.
8. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
9. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

These clear steps will help you create this deliciously comforting soup.
