This chicken pot pie soup can easily be made in the slow cooker as well! Follow these simple steps to get started.

1. Place chicken (recommend using frozen), potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, peas, stock, butter, salt, pepper, thyme and nutmeg in the crock pot. Cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 6 hours. Remove chicken from crock pot, shred, and add back in.

How to thicken chicken pot pie soup

I personally think that the consistency of this pot pie soup is perfectly creamy, however you can easily thicken it more if you prefer it extra creamy. I’d start by mixing in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch at a time. In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water, then add to pot pie soup and stir. Continue to add by the tablespoon until you reach desired creaminess.

Can you freeze chicken pot pie soup?

Yes, you can freeze this chicken pot pie soup. Once cooled, store soup in an airtight container or freezer bag and place in the freezer. To thaw, stick in the fridge overnight. I prefer to warm my pot pie soup back up on the stove, however you can stick in the microwave too. If it thickens up too much while in the freezer, feel free to add a splash of chicken broth to help make the consistency more ‘soupy’ again.

Quick tips about chicken pot pie soup recipe

• Feel free to add in more veggies – like corn, mushrooms or green beans.
• Use a rotisserie chicken to make this pot pie recipe a little easier.
• Turkey breast would be delicious in this pot pie soup too. Especially if you have some leftover from Thanksgiving or Christmas!
• Sometimes I’ll serve my chicken pot pie soup with pie crust pieces (homemade or store bought is fine). Just bake pie crust until brown and crispy, break into pieces and top your soup with desired amount!
• Can sub milk for half and half if you’d like to lighten it up a bit.
