For the Soup:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 2 larger breasts)
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1 cup carrots, cut into 1/4 inch thick small circles
  • 1 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic, finely minced
  • 2 cups Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 cup Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into quarters (to remove later)
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 3 cups chicken broth (or bone broth, low sodium)
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (for garnish)
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (almond milk, whole milk, etc.)

Instructions

Instant Pot Instructions:

  1. Sear the Chicken:
    Set Instant Pot to sauté function. Add olive oil and sear the chicken breasts on each side for about 2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  2. Sauté Vegetables:
    Add the diced celery, carrots, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, parsley, basil, and rosemary. Sauté for 2 minutes until vegetables are slightly translucent.
  3. Add Potatoes and Chicken:
    Stir in the small cut potatoes. Lay the chicken breasts on top and place large potato quarters on top of the chicken. Pour in chicken broth.
  4. Pressure Cook:
    Close the Instant Pot lid and set it to High Pressure for 9 minutes. Once done, allow a 5-minute natural release, then manually release the remaining pressure.
  5. Blend and Shred:
    Remove large potato pieces and chicken. Place large potato quarters, milk, and 1/2 cup of broth into a blender and blend until smooth. Add the mixture back into the pot.
  6. Shred Chicken:
    Shred the chicken and return it to the pot. Stir everything together, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve.

Crockpot Instructions:

  1. Sauté Vegetables:
    Heat olive oil in a pan on the stove. Add celery, carrots, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, parsley, basil, and rosemary. Sauté for 2 minutes or until vegetables soften slightly (optional but recommended).
  2. Layer in Crockpot:
    Layer raw chicken, cooked vegetables, and small potatoes in the crockpot. Add chicken broth and set to low for 6 hours.
  3. Blend and Shred:
    After cooking, remove large potato pieces and chicken. Blend the large potatoes, milk, and 1/2 cup of broth until smooth. Add it back to the crockpot.
  4. Shred Chicken:
    Shred the chicken and return it to the pot. Stir everything together, garnish with parsley, and serve.

Stovetop Instructions:

  1. Sauté Vegetables:
    Heat olive oil in a large pot. Add celery, carrots, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, parsley, basil, and rosemary. Sauté for 2 minutes.
  2. Cook the Soup:
    Add raw chicken, potatoes, and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Blend and Shred:
    Remove large potato pieces and chicken. Blend the large potatoes, milk, and 1/2 cup of broth until smooth. Return the mixture to the pot.
  4. Shred Chicken:
    Shred the chicken, return it to the pot, stir everything together, garnish with parsley, and serve.

Notes

  • Make it creamy: Add extra milk or a splash of heavy cream for an even creamier texture.
  • Frozen chicken: You can use frozen chicken breasts if you’re in a rush. Just cook the Instant Pot for 12 minutes instead of 9.
  • Make ahead: This soup stores well in the fridge for up to 4 days and can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
  • Customize: Feel free to add other vegetables like peas, corn, or green beans for extra flavor.
  • Dairy-Free: Use almond milk or any other dairy-free milk for a dairy-free option.
