The Best Broccoli Cheddar Soup With Chicken image

This is delicious and lower-fat than most creamy soups as it has no cream in it. I have adapted it from a number of broccoli soups and added chicken (use pre cooked to save time) to make it a more complete meal. Perfect winter comfort food!

Time 4h15m

Yield 8 serving, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (8 ounce) cans low sodium chicken broth
1 (8 ounce) package reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup flour
8 tablespoons butter (I like smart balance) or 8 tablespoons butter, alternative (I like smart balance)
1 cup diced red onion
2 cups minced fresh broccoli
3 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 cups shredded chicken
12 ounces cheddar cheese
2 teaspoons fresh garlic cloves
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (or to taste)
1 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Saute onion and garlic with 2 tbsp butter until onion is becoming translucent.
  • In another pan melt remaining butter and slowly add flour to create a roue.
  • Combine all ingredients in crock pot and simmer on high for 4 hours or until potatoes are tender.
  • You may need to stir often during first hour to ensure all ingredients are combined.
  • Top with additional cheddar cheese and green onions if you like!

Tips:

  • To make your soup extra creamy, use a food processor or blender to puree some of the soup before adding the chicken back in.
  • For a thicker soup, add more flour to the roux. For a thinner soup, add more milk or broth.
  • If you don't have any sharp cheddar cheese on hand, you can use a combination of other cheeses, such as mild cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan.
  • To make your soup more flavorful, add a bay leaf or two to the pot while it's simmering.
  • Serve your soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers for dipping.

Conclusion:

This cheddar chicken soup is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for a cold winter day. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying soup, give this cheddar chicken soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
