Want the deliciousness of chicken pot pie without the hassle? This is super quick & easy if you have already cooked chicken and some baked potatoes on hand!
2 TBS butter
3 cloves garlic
1/2 onion, chopped (or pureed)
6 cups chickens stock (or 6 c. water & 2 TBS Better than Bouillon paste from Costco)
2-3 cups chopped veggies or frozen mixed veggies or leftover steamed veggies
1-2 cups chopped cooked chicken
4 baked potatoes, cubed
1/4 c. flour, corn starch or tapioca starch
1/2 c water
1/2 tsp to 2tsp salt (to taste, depends on your chicken stock)
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp ground sage or poultry seasoning
Melt butter in a large pot. Add garlic & onions and saute until onions are translucent. Add the chicken stock. Add any hard veggies and simmer until soft (depends on what you're adding, carrots & celery take longer - probably at least 20 minutes) Add frozen veggies (such as beans, carrots, corn, etc) so they will cook for about 5-7 minutes. Mix the thickener (flour or starch) in 1/2 c water in a jar. Put the lid on and shake it. Now add the chicken, potatoes, and any leftover steamed veggies. Bring back to a boil and then slowly pour the thickener into the soup while whisking. Simmer until soup gets thick (may need to add more thickener depending on your soup.) Season with salt, pepper & sage or poultry seasoning.
