My from-scratch chicken pot pie soup is the belly-warming food I need as soon as it starts snowing. It’s my favorite way to use up leftover chicken in the winter. It tastes incredible and is so rich and creamy thanks to heavy cream. This recipe has quite the list of ingredients, but when I tell you it’s worth it, I mean it. The method is super simple and everything happens in one pot, so there’s very little cleanup required.
Chicken Pot Pie Soup Recipe
I love chicken pot pie, but turning it into soup has made my life so much easier. No more complicated crusts to deal with, and I get to fill my belly with a rich and warming soup! I love to serve mine with a fresh-baked biscuit so I don’t feel like I’m missing out on the crust. This soup is incredibly creamy and filled with tons of delicious veggies!
Note: This recipe is one of those few exceptions on our site that has more than 10 ingredients. We try to keep things VERY easy around here, and limiting ingredients and time spent is one of our favorite ways. That being said, this recipe is too delicious to leave out of our recipe box! It’s an exception that is so flavorful and worth the extra ingredients if you have the time and resources to make it.

How to Store and Reheat
Store leftover chicken pot pie soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop when you want it. I don’t recommend freezing this soup because dairy products often “break” when frozen and thawed, resulting in grainy soup.
Notes and Tips
- You’re going to need cooked chicken for this recipe. You can shred it into pieces beforehand. It’s best to use boneless, skinless chicken breast or chicken thighs that you can boil or bake and then shred.
- If you don’t have white wine, don’t worry about it. You can use the chicken broth without it.
- When you want the soup to cook a bit faster, microwave cubed potatoes for 5 to 10 minutes before you add them to the soup.
