easy chicken soup

Here&#x27;s a super easy, delicious and highly customizable Creamy Chicken Soup recipe for your pressure cooker or instant pot that you can make with whatever you have in your pantry, freezer, or fridge.

Creamy Chicken Soup

Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs (diced small)

Frozen Mixed Vegetables ((usually one small bag of frozen veg))

Water

poultry seasoning

Better than Bouillion

Kosher Salt

Ground Black Pepper

Evaporated Milk

Place all ingredients except for the evaporated milk into the inner liner of your Instant Pot or pressure cooker.

Cook for 2 minutes on high pressure and release pressure immediately, being careful to do this in short bursts so as to not get soup all over your kitchen (not that I&#x27;ve ever done that before 😅).

Add in the evaporated milk, stir, and serve.

I sometimes mash up the chicken with the back of a wooden spoon to break up the chicken into shreds, but this is of course entirely optional. Also, fiddly.

Perfect for chilly nights or lazy afternoons, chicken vegetable soup is the ultimate go-to comfort food!

Chicken Vegetable Soup

onion (diced)

butter

potatoes

flour

chicken broth

tomatoes (with juices)

basil

oregano

vegetables

Cook onion in butter over medium heat until it starts to soften, about 3 minutes.

Add potatoes and cook an additional 3-4 minutes. Stir in flour and cook 1 minute more.

Add broth, tomatoes and seasonings. Simmer 12 minutes or until potatoes are softened.

Stir in vegetables and chicken. Simmer 5 minutes more.

Taste and season with salt and pepper.

Garnish with parsley and serve.

This hearty soup is full of vegetables, chicken and two kinds of beans, all simmered in a tomato broth.

Italian Chicken Bean Soup

olive oil

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are just tender, 5-6 minutes.

Add the tomatoes and chicken broth to the pot, and bring to a simmer.

Stir in the chicken, beans, and zucchini and cook for 5-7 minutes more, until zucchini is tender.

Add more salt and pepper as desired.

Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.

Chinese Chicken Soup Recipe

3-4.5 lbs whole chicken (giblets removed (see notes))

carrots (optional)

celery (optional)

baby spareribs (dice up or whole, optional)

water

Salt

Cilantro and chopped scallions (optional)

In a 6-quart Instant Pot, add chicken, carrots, celery, spareribs, if using, and one Chinese herbal packet.

Fill the pot with enough water to just cover the entire chicken, 8 to 10 cups. The pressure cooker should not be more than two-thirds full.

Seal the lid and valve. Set for high pressure for 50 minutes. Allow the soup to come to natural pressure release.  Please Do Not use quick release.

For slow cooker, cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or up to 24 hours.

For stovetop, bring the ingredients to a boil in a soup pot, then lower the heat and simmer for 1 ½ to 2 hours. You may need to add a bit more water to compensate for evaporation.

Season with salt to taste. Add garnish before serving if desired.

I would give 10 stars if I could! Absolutely delicious! The spare ribs added a lot of fat so I had to cool after making initially to harden and remove the fat cap but the flavor is just divine! 

I just bought my first two packets of herbs from this company. Can't wait to try them. Do you ever add other aromatics, like garlic and ginger?

This soup is so beautiful and healing, plus I love that it is slow cooker and Instant Pot friendly.  I've tasted gogi berries before and loved them, but never in a soup . . . therefore I can't wait to try your recipe later this week!

Made this soup and loved it! Love root and spring too! Was a flavor bomb without much work. ❤️I heartumami!!

I definitely need to try their packets! I've never had Chinese chicken soup but your post has me wanting to try it. My chicken soup is so boring!

That is an excellent price for the ginseng packet. I love making soup like this but the ingredients are often hard to source or not affordable. Thanks for sharing that product!

Love how nourishing this is! Lovely flavours!

Sounds nourishing and delicious! I never thought to add ribs to my chicken soup. I bet it gives a nice flavor. :)

This is such a great big bowl of comfort. And I love that you use both chicken and spareribs. I never would've thought of that but I love it!

High quality herbs make such a huge difference!

I love ginseng in chicken soup! There's actually a similar Korean soup like this and I love it. Can't wait to try your version.

Yummy! This very much reminds me of some of the Chinese soups my mom makes - so nourishing!

How To Make The Best Chinese Chicken Soup (Easy!)

Easy Chicken Tortilla Soup

jalapeno pepper

onion

garlic

tomatoes

oz black beans

tbsp chili powder

tsp cumin

tsp sea salt

paprika

tsp black pepper

cayenne pepper

corn kernels

lime juiced

cilantro

2 cups roasted chicken shredded

In a large heavy bottom stock pot heat add olive oil, onions, jalapenos and garlic and let cook over medium heat until onions start to become translucent.

Add crushed tomatoes, chicken stock, beans and spices.  Stir to ensure blended evenly.  If you like your soup broth to be thinner simply add some water or more chicken stock to desired density.

Turn up heat and simmer on medium high for 15 minutes.

Add corn kernels and continue to simmer for another 5 minutes.

When complete add juice of a freshly squeezed lime and stir.

Spoon with ladle into soup bowls and add shredded roasted chicken.

Add 2-3 broken Corn Tortilla chips to top after and just before eating along with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro. Serve warm.

Refrigerate leftovers for 1-2 days or freeze for up to a month for lunches or dinners.

This Chicken Tortilla Soup is a flavorful and comforting Mexican-inspired dish combining tender shredded chicken, black beans, corn, and fire-roasted tomatoes with smoky chipotle and warming spices. Finished with homemade crispy tortilla strips, creamy avocado, shredded cheese, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime, this soup is perfect for a wholesome and satisfying meal that can be prepared in about 40 minutes.

Creamy Spicy Chicken Tortilla Soup with Avocado and Crispy Tortilla Strips Recipe

onion, roughly chopped

jalapeno pepper, stem and seeds removed, roughly chopped

salt and freshly cracked black pepper,

chipotle pepper

fire roasted tomatoes and green chiles

chicken stock

black beans

corn

rotisserie chicken

Shredded cheese (Colby Jack, Monterey Jack,

limes

Cubed avocado

Sliced green onions

jalapenos

corn tortillas,

Vegetable oil

Sauté aromatics

Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and jalapeno and sauté until the onion becomes translucent and jalapeno softens. Season with salt, pepper, dried oregano, cumin, and ground chipotle pepper. Stir well and cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices, releasing their aromas.

Simmer the soup

Add the fire-roasted tomatoes and green chiles along with chicken stock to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Allow the soup to simmer gently for 30 minutes, melding the flavors together.

Blend the soup

Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup directly in the pot until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Stir in black beans, corn, and shredded rotisserie chicken to incorporate them into the soup.

Prepare tortilla strips

In a small skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add tortilla strips in a single layer and fry quickly for approximately 30-45 seconds per side until they become crisp and golden. Flip once during frying to ensure even crispness. Remove with tongs and drain on paper towels.

Assemble and serve

Divide soup evenly into four bowls. Top each serving with shredded cheese, cubed avocado, fresh cilantro leaves, sliced green onions, and crispy tortilla strips. Add extra lime juice and jalapeno slices on the side if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant, delicious flavors.

This Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipe features tender shredded chicken simmered in a rich, spiced tomato broth, topped with crispy tortilla strips, fresh lime, and creamy garnishes for a cozy, flavor-packed meal.
