Creamy chicken pot pie soup is like sitting down to a bowl of comfort. It is easy to make and has all of the flavors of our favorite pot pie in soup form. It is great on its own or top it with a biscuit or a little crumbled pie crust for the full pot pie experience.
If you love a good creamy chicken pot pie, you are going to love this creamy chicken soup! It is hearty and full of the good stuff. Plus it smells amazing as it simmers on the stove.
This is a great warm you up meal that is easily adapted to the ingredients you have on hand. Float a biscuit or bits of pie crust on top for the perfect pot pie finish.
To me, a major part of the draw of a soup on a cold day is the warm comforting hug it gives you from the inside out. There is just something so cozy and homey about a nice bowl of hot soup.
Very few things get more cozy and homey than a homemade chicken pot pie. So, why not bring two of the coziest, homiest, deliciousest (sure, why not?!) things around together for the ultimate comfort food in a bowl!
This could easily be made with leftover chicken if you have it. Otherwise a couple of boneless chicken breasts or thighs will be perfect.
Then you are just a few minutes away from a hot bowl of love. The creamy broth, chunky veggies and bites of chicken are a perfect base.
What are your favorite fall and winter comfort foods? We still have a few good months of cold weather left, so there is plenty of time to enjoy!

Easy Adaptations:
Shred up some leftover chicken or part of a rotisserie chicken instead of using raw chicken if that’s what you have. Just toss it in with the veggies.
I sometimes use a bag of frozen mixed vegetables instead of peas and carrots. Use whatever you like best.
If you don’t have biscuits or pie crust on hand, don’t despair. The soup is great on it’s own as well.

I never heard of Pot Pie soup but will be giving it a try this weekend! This looks amazing!
I hope you love it! Thank you!
Thanks!

Hi Carlee, I think I may have mentioned it several times before, but I do enjoy a nice soup on a cold winters day. I don't think I have ever heard of pot pie soup before (I lead a sheltered life!) and this sounds tasty. I wonder if it would work with dumplings?

It would work perfectly as a base for dumplings! You could probably leave a bit of the starch out of the broth as dumplings (mine anyway) tend to thicken the broth a bit on their own. Now I am super hungry for some chicken and dumplings. That is one of my favorite comfort foods… I really need to get a recipe on the blog, but I make them differently every time so I am never sure what version to share!
This looks amazing! Can't wait to give it a try. Thank you for sharing at Merry Monday!
Thank you! It is definitely a winner!
After seeing the photo of this yummy soup on Instagram, I had to come get the recipe! Pot pie is a favorite and warming soup is a necessity right now!
Yes it is! I can't wait for winter to be over, but I do enjoy the excuse to make lots of soups! Thanks so much for stopping by.
I've been wanting to make a chicken pot pie soup, so you've definitely reminded me of that! Thanks for the great share – it looks wonderful!
You definitely should make some! Thanks!
I like the idea of topping it with the biscuit. YUM
Thank you! It was really good on there!
Yum! This sounds good and rib-stickingly warm. It is going to be really cold this weekend and I think this will top the menu! I had a container of crescents in the fridge and rather than unroll them I sliced them and baked them in circles. Those would be good with this too. Sort of like the topper for a pot pie. Have a great weekend.
Wishes for tasty dishes,
Linda
That is a great idea! It is a great way to fend off the cold to the bones weather we have been having. Thanks, Linda!
Hi Carlee and happy new year. I have never made this type of soup but it sure looks like a winner. I will give it a try.
Have a nice weekend.

I hope you love it, Julie! Happy New Year!
Not only have you reminded me I haven't made a chicken pot pie in awhile, now I want to make the soup!!!! Yum! Have a wonderful weekend sweetness!!
I love food like this. My mom happened to make pot pies for dinner last night too… so we've been in pot pie heaven. So perfect for this cold snap!
