Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Soup [+Video]

Warm up with a delicious and hearty pot pie soup filled with chicken or turkey, vegetables, and a creamy broth.

Take your favorite comfort food and turn it into the best cold weather soup ever, chicken or turkey pot pie soup! We even added biscuits on top!

It’s like taking our classic chicken pot pie and eating it inside out. We make the filling a little creamier so it’s more soup-like and instead of being in a crust, we top it with golden crispy little biscuits. They are totally optional but I love the extra texture and flavor it adds.

Ingredients for Chicken Pot Pie Soup

All of these ingredients come together in one pot and this soup so simple to make. Here are the ingredients you will need:

• Olive Oil: used to sauté the onions and garlic
• Onion: adds flavor
• Garlic: an aromatic that adds flavor
• Fresh Thyme and Fresh Parsley: adds fresh flavor
• Yukon Gold Potatoes: Russet potatoes or even red potatoes could be used. I just love the flavor and texture of gold potatoes in this soup.
• Flour: helps thicken the soup
• Kosher Salt and Fresh Black Pepper: adds flavor
• Rotisserie Chicken: I just grab a rotisserie chicken at Costco and break it down myself or buy the packaged rotisserie chicken at Costco.
  • NOTE: If you don’t want to use rotisserie chicken, you could cook your own whole chicken or cook 3 chicken breasts in whatever your favorite method for cooking chicken is – grilled, baked, boiled (please never), etc.
• Half and Half: Adds creaminess and richness to the soup. For a healthier soup use milk instead.
• Chicken Broth or Stock: adds flavor and more substance to the base of the soup
• Heavy Cream: add more richness and creaminess to the soup
• Bay Leaf: adds flavor
• Frozen Carrot and Pea Mixture: can be bought in the freezer section at the grocery store

For the Biscuits

• Flour: Just regular all purpose flour is all you need.
• Sea Salt: adds flavor
• Sugar: adds a touch of sweetness
• Baking Powder: gives the biscuits their rise and fluff
• Buttermilk: adds acidity, flavor, and rise to the biscuits
• Egg: gives the biscuit structure
• Shortening: adds fat and richness
• Butter: adds fat and flavor

All of the measurements and details for the ingredients can be found in the recipe card at the end of the post.

How to Make Chicken Pot Pie Soup

The Flakiest Savory Beef Pot Pie

Savory indulgent beef pot pie that is loaded with vegetables and topped with flaky, golden puff pastry! It’s pure comfort food!

I mean, it was bound to happen. Our readers are in love with our chicken pot pie, and in fact it’s one of the most popular recipes on our site. But with all of you requesting a few more beef recipes I couldn’t resist a savory beef pot pie recipe. Is it possible to have too many pot pies?

I think not!

What started out one way ended up an entirely different way and I’m ridiculously pleased with the results. And no one is happier than Cade, he says it’s one of his new favorite dinners. 🙂

Ingredients for Beef Pot Pie

You’ll start by pulling your puff pastry sheet out of the freezer and letting it thaw slightly. The rest of the ingredients you will need are here:

• Puff Pastry – found in the freezer section of the grocery store by the pie crusts
• Beef Roast – chuck roast is my preferred cut, but a top sirloin or round roast would also work, you could even use ground beef for a budget friendly option
• Salt – flavor
• Pepper – flavor
• Yellow Onion – adds so much to the depth of flavor, see section below for using onions if you are not a fan of onions
• Garlic – flavor
• Carrots – go with real carrots that you peel and slice, no baby carrots
• Celery – flavor and texture
• Peas – I love these bright pops of flavor and color. They get added right before adding the filling to the baking dish so they don’t get too mushy.
• Flour – thickens the filling
• Rosemary – fresh is best, but you can use dried if you need to, 1 sprig fresh = 1 teaspoon dried
• Bay Leaf – adds so much flavor, remove it before adding the filling to the baking dish
• Thyme – fresh is preferred, but if you need to use dried, 1 teaspoon fresh = 1/3 teaspoon dried
• Beef Broth – the base of the gravy that the meat and veggies will simmer in and become the delicious filling
• Balsamic Vinegar – add sweetness and tanginess to the gravy
• Worcestershire Sauce – our preferred brand is Lea & Perrins and it is essential! It adds great umami flavor!
• Dijon Mustard – adds to the depth of flavor in the gravy
• Whole Milk – used for the egg wash
• Egg – used for the egg wash that will make crust beautifully golden

What If You Hate Onions?

My Best Homemade Chicken Pot Pie Recipe [+Video]

This Homemade Chicken Pot Pie Recipe is made completely from scratch! It has a buttery, flaky crust and the most luscious chicken and vegetable filling!

Between our famous Chili recipe and this chicken pot pie recipe I’M CONVINCED that as much as we are always looking for the newest thing we actually crave the comfort of the past.

Chicken Pot Pie (From Scratch!)

I remember my mom bringing home a frozen pot pie from the store on the nights that she was just too crazy busy to make it from scratch. Back then that was the norm, you know? Convenience items weren’t thought twice about because they were there to help moms get dinner on the table.

Since that time, I’d forgotten about pot pie until years and years ago we had a homemade one from a friend and it was comfort food perfection! We’ve had our chicken pot pie soup on the blog for a long time, but we’ve needed a classic chicken pot pie. Sadly it’s taken me until now to develop the perfect pie crust and chicken pot pie filling, but here it is!

I mean, the crust had to be buttery and flaky but still hold up to the filling and my gosh, that filling needed to be perfect! None of this watery mumbo jumbo. And no, it should not taste like chicken gravy either. It should be a perfect sauce with well seasoned big pieces of chicken in it. Rotisserie chicken is a must to achieve that. Not only is it easier, but the flavor and texture are meant to be!

Gather all your loved ones near and dive in to this homemade pot pie! The crust is flaky and perfectly encases the rich and creamy chicken and vegetable filling. It is comfort in every single bite!

Turkey Pot Pie [+Video]

Turkey pot pie is all the comfort you could imagine bundled in the most perfectly golden crust. It is creamy, full of veggies and perfect for leftover turkey.

Our chicken pot pie was one of our biggest posts last year. We had so many emails around Thanksgiving about using leftover turkey instead of chicken that we decided a turkey pot pie needed it’s own place on the blog.

We are making everything from scratch. From the flaky crust to the turkey and vegetable filling, it’s all homemade and we are going to walk you through each step.

It took me a while to figure out the perfect crust for a savory pie that was hardy enough to hold up under the filling but still fall apart flaky delicious. Once I figured that out and the consistency of the filling, the best pot recipe ever came to be. Now we are doing a turkey version and you’re going to love it!

Easy Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie

Imagine that creamy, crave-worthy chicken pot pie filling that you can’t resist and top it with golden, flaky buttermilk biscuits, and you have the most delicious family-friendly dinner ever!

It feels like a lot of our days are busy lately but there’s just nothing that can take the place of family dinner. Our chicken pot pie recipe remains one of our most popular recipes on the site, but I know how intimidating a pie crust could be so I’ve come up with a biscuit version. And not only that, but the semi homemade version comes together in no time!

I’m going to give you both a homemade and semi homemade version because when I first started cooking this, I used the canned soups I learned on. It taught me what veggies work and the perfect biscuit-to-filling ratio. We all have to start somewhere, and I’m a huge fan of teaching simple methods and then moving into completely homemade.

You will find two recipe cards at the end of the post, one for each version. So you can pick the one that fits your schedule and desires.
