2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken or turkey)
3 medium potatoes, peeled and diced (sweet potatoes or any root vegetable)
1 cup carrots, diced (frozen mixed vegetables)
1 cup celery, diced (leeks or bell pepper)
4 cups chicken broth (vegetable broth or water)
1 cup heavy cream (milk or coconut milk for a dairy-free option)
Salt and pepper to taste (herbs like thyme or parsley for seasoning)
Prepare the Ingredients: Start by gathering all your ingredients. Chop your potatoes, carrots, and celery; shred the chicken if not already prepared.
Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced carrots and celery, sautéing them for about 5 minutes, or until they start to soften.
Add Potatoes: Stir in the diced potatoes, mixing until combined. Cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Pour in the Broth: Add the chicken broth to the pot, bringing the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cover the pot.
Cook the Soup: Let the soup simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Incorporate the Chicken: Add the shredded chicken to the pot along with the heavy cream. Stir well and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes until everything is heated through.
Season to Taste: Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper as needed. Feel free to add any additional herbs or spices to enhance the flavor.
Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and serve warm with crusty bread or a sprinkle of fresh herbs on top for garnish.
