Chicken Pot Pie is one of those comfort foods people can't seem to get enough of — including me. Since soup season is here, this is one of my favorite recipes to serve in a soup bowl with a soup spoon (yes, I'm particular about that, and there's no shame in it).

My other favorite part of eating soup is having something to dunk in it — a buttermilk biscuit dipped in this soup is a very good time.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. unsalted butter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (use a gluten-free blend to make this GF)
  • 2 tbsp. onion powder
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups whole milk (or your favorite dairy-free milk)
  • 2 lbs. cooked chicken, diced
  • 1 lb. frozen mixed vegetables (corn, green beans, carrots, peas)
  • 1 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1Melt the butter in a stock pot over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and onion powder, and cook for 1 minute.
  2. 2Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and milk. Continue cooking for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the soup thickens.
  3. 3Stir in the chicken, vegetables, salt, and pepper. Serve hot with biscuits.

Tips

  • Rotisserie chicken works great here — the mix of white and dark meat adds extra flavor.

Storage & Reheating

Freezer instructions: portion into containers, cool in the refrigerator, then cover and freeze for up to 4 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat on the stove or in the microwave.
