High Protein Chicken Pot Pie Soup

A hearty and healthy soup infused with the classic flavors of chicken pot pie, filled with protein and wholesome ingredients.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breast, diced
  • 1 cup carrots, diced
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup almond flour (optional, for thickening)

Instructions

  1. Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the diced onion and garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onions become translucent.
  2. Add the Chicken: Toss in the diced chicken breast with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
  3. Mix in the Veggies: Adding in the carrots and celery now! Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until they’re slightly softened.
  4. Pour in the Broth: Pour in the chicken broth, stirring to combine everything. Bring this to a gentle simmer.
  5. Coconut Milk & Peas: Stir in the coconut milk and frozen peas. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the soup simmer for another 5-10 minutes.
  6. Add the Herbs: Sprinkle in the thyme, rosemary, and additional salt and pepper if needed.
  7. Thickening the Soup: If you prefer a thicker soup, mix the almond flour with a little water to create a slurry, and stir it into the pot.
  8. Final Touches: Once the soup reaches your desired consistency, serve!

Notes
