If you like chicken and you like potatoes and mushrooms, I think you'll like this soup. We all did! Last night, I wanted to make something quick (as always), so I went to work scouring the cupboards and freezer for ideas.
Chicken Potato Soup
Ingredients:
2 chicken breasts
1 small can mushroom pieces
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can water
1 can corn
2 cups chicken broth
1 onion, chopped
2 red potatoes, cubed
Thyme to taste
1 Bay leaf
Garlic powder to taste
Lemon pepper seasoning to taste
Directions:
Cut up the chicken and fresh vegetables. Meanwhile, get the canned stuff going in a big soup pot (soup, mushrooms, corn). Add in the liquids and seasonings, plus the chicken and veggies. Heat to a boil, then turn down & simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
I started with frozen chicken breasts, thawing them in the microwave while I cut up the onion and potatoes. This soup would be great served with hard rolls, garlic bread or even grilled cheese sandwiches too. Or, for a more healthy alternative... a nice green salad.
Variations
- Use leftover cooked chicken from another meal
- Substitute fresh mushrooms for canned
- Use rice or noodles instead of potatoes
- Substitute milk for the water for a creamier alternative
- Use different vegetables
- Change up the seasonings
