We especially like using Costco rotisserie chickens because the meat is well-seasoned. Black pepper -- For flavor and seasoning. Kosher salt -- For flavor and seasoning. Unsalted butter-- Use for sautéing the vegetables and adding buttering richness. Yellow onion, fresh carrots, and celery -- Make the classic mirepoix that enhances the soup's flavor.

To cook using fresh chicken breasts
Heat oil or butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Place the chicken, skin-side down, in the Dutch oven and cook until the outside skin is golden brown (about 10 minutes). Transfer chicken to a plate, and keep drippings in the Dutch oven. Remove and discard chicken skin; sprinkle breasts with pepper and one teaspoon salt.To cook using a rotisserie chicken
Remove the entire chicken breast with bone from the cooked chicken. Remove the meat from the bone, but save the bone for the soup. You will need 4 cups of shredded meat. Set the meat aside.
? Storage
Refrigerate leftover soup in an airtight container for up to three days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave until hot throughout before serving.
? Variations
Chicken Pot Pie Soup is a one-pot meal that has it all: protein, veggies, and biscuits for serving. If you'd like to put your own twist on the dish, here are some ideas:
If you'd rather skip the biscuits, serve with crusty bread or dinner rolls for dipping. Add diced russet potatoes or Yukon gold potatoes before simmering for even more heartiness. Mix up the herbs, using what's fresh from the garden. Serve with Cheddar and chive biscuits for even more flavor. Add spices to suit your tastes: a hint of nutmeg, mustard powder, or a little cayenne for heat can be nice additions. Stir in or top with crisped bacon for a satisfying addition.???? Tips
Keep the drippings in the Dutch oven. This is important because the drippings contribute to the overall richness of the soup. When adding wine, use a wooden spoon to scrape any flavorful bits from the bottom of the Dutch oven. This process is known as deglazing and enhances the flavor of the broth. To avoid burns, let the hot chicken cool slightly before shredding. Use two forks or your hands, removing bones and cartilage for a clean result.? FAQs
Can I swap the chicken in pot pie with other proteins?
Pot pie is the perfect vehicle to use up leftover meats. Substitute shredded
turkey, diced ham, or a shredded rotisserie chicken in the place of the bone-in chicken breasts.
To make this soup gluten-free, substitute the flour with a cornstarch slurry to thicken.
Yes. While we recommend making a mirepoix of carrots, celery, and onion to give the soup a rich, flavorful base, for a quick shortcut you can start by sautéing the onion and then adding a frozen vegetable mix along with the chicken to the soup.
To make a vegetarian version of this pot pie, leave out the chicken and substitute the chicken broth for vegetable broth. Add additional vegetables and potatoes for a filling result.
In this dish, we just used simple salt and pepper for the chicken so the other ingredients in the soup could shine!
