Ingredients

Main Ingredients

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
4 cups biscuit dough, cut into small pieces

These ingredients come together to create a delicious and hearty soup.

Instructions

Cook the Chicken

In a large pot, cook the chicken breasts over medium heat until no longer pink. Remove from the pot and shred the chicken.

Sauté Vegetables

In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions are translucent.

Add Broth and Cream

Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, then bring to a simmer.

Combine Everything

Add the shredded chicken, mixed vegetables, thyme, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Finish with Biscuit Dough

Stir in the biscuit dough pieces and cook until they are fluffy and cooked through, about 5 minutes.

Now you can serve the soup hot, enjoying a taste reminiscent of chicken pot pie.

Troubleshooting Tips

Cooking chicken to perfection is crucial for this recipe. To avoid tough or dry chicken, make sure not to overcook it. If you're uncertain, using a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 165°F will ensure it’s safe and juicy. Remove it from the pot as soon as it's done to prevent it from cooking further while you prepare the rest of the soup.

Should your broth turn out too thick or creamy, simply add additional chicken broth until you reach your desired consistency. This soup should feel hearty yet approachable, so don’t hesitate to adjust the creaminess to your liking.

Serving Suggestions

To elevate your Chicken Pot Pie Soup, consider garnishing it with fresh herbs like parsley or chives. A sprinkle of these vibrant herbs adds not only color but also a fresh burst of flavor that complements the richness of the soup beautifully. A splash of lemon juice can also brighten up the dish and bring out the flavors even more.

Pairing the soup with a side of crusty bread or homemade cornbread complements the creamy texture wonderfully. The contrasting textures enhance your eating experience, making each meal feel special. And don't forget about a simple green salad; it’s a great way to add a refreshing crunch.
