Steps:
- In a heavy stockpot over medium heat, sauté onion and garlic in butter for 2-3 minutes; add flour and cook, stirring, for another 2-3 minutes until bubbly; gradually whisk in chicken broth and half & half; cook, stirring frequently, until thickened.
- Meanwhile, in a separate pan, add water to broccoli and bring just to boiling (the broccoli should be only partially cooked and not soft) then remove from heat; do not drain cooking water from broccoli.
- Add parmesan cheese to soup-base in stockpot; cook over low heat, stirring, just until cheese is melted; add cooked broccoli along with its cooking water, chicken, seasonings, and bow tie pasta to the stockpot; heat through.
- NOTES: 6 ounces bow tie pasta equals 2 1/4 cups before cooking and 3 cups diced chicken breast equals 1 ½ pounds before cooking. Also, decrease the salt by half if you happen to substitute full-sodium chicken broth in this recipe.
LIGHT CHICKEN BROCCOLI ALFREDO SOUP (LOWER FAT)
When I ran across Chef #55221's recipe for Recipe #155375, I thought it sounded like something my family would love. Being on a "lower fat" diet, there was no way I could make it as written though. I was really pleased with how well the recipe modified to meet my dietary needs. It was still rich and delicious, and everyone loved it. Here is my lightened up version.

Steps:
- In a heavy stockpot over medium heat, sauté onion and garlic in olive oil for 2-3 minutes. Add light butter and 1/4 cup flour and cook, stirring, for another 2-3 minutes until bubbly. Add remaining 1/2 cup of flour to a small amount of chicken broth and stir to remove lumps. Gradually whisk in flour and broth combo, plus remaining chicken broth and half & half; cook, stirring frequently, until thickened.
- Meanwhile, steam broccoli (I use the steamer bag in the microwave) or cook broccoli in a separate pan with 2 cups of water just until form and not soft. Remove from heat and do not drain cooking water from broccoli.
- Add Parmesan cheese topping to soup-base in stockpot; cook over low heat, stirring, just until cheese is melted; add steamed broccoli and 2 cups of water (or cooked broccoli along with its cooking water), chicken, seasonings, and bow tie pasta to the stockpot; heat through.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your soup. Use the best chicken, broccoli, and cheese that you can find.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: When cooking the chicken and broccoli, make sure that there is enough space in the pot for the ingredients to cook evenly. If the pot is too crowded, the ingredients will steam instead of sautéing, and they will not develop as much flavor.
- Use a good quality Alfredo sauce: The Alfredo sauce is the key to this soup, so make sure that you use a good quality sauce. You can use a store-bought sauce or make your own.
- Season to taste: Be sure to taste the soup before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: This soup is delicious on its own, but it can also be served with a variety of toppings, such as grated Parmesan cheese, croutons, or bacon.
Conclusion:
This chicken broccoli Alfredo soup is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken and broccoli. The soup is creamy, cheesy, and flavorful, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this chicken broccoli Alfredo soup a try. You won't be disappointed!
