I am a huge fan of soup in the fall and winter months all year. Typically, I have a soup I stick to for the season, like summer. We do a lot of my Chicken Tortilla Soup, and I stick to this Chicken Pot Pie Soup for fall and winter.

Thick, creamy, and delicious. Plus, everything comes together in just 30 minutes.

Inspiration for This Soup

Last week, I went over my friend Zora’s house and as I walked in I could smell dinner. I thought something along the lines of a pot pie. When I asked what it was, she said it was a Chicken Pot Pie Soup, and I just had to try it. Because Zora is one of the nicest ladies I have had the pleasure of calling my friend, she got me a spoon.

Oh, it was amazing! I loved it and immediately asked for the recipe. She said, “I just threw it together.” But she gave me the list of ingredients, and a few days later, my family and I enjoyed the same soup!

The Secret Ingredient that Makes it Amazing

Now, I know many people have a pot pie soup they love, but a secret ingredient elevates this soup to a whole new level of awesomeness.

So here it is, the secret my friend Zora shared….Montreal steak seasoning! It’s a spice mix with various flavors that gives this chicken pot pie soup an amazing flavor.

How to Make Chicken Pot Pie Soup?

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add in potatoes and boil until potatoes are tender, about 8-10 minutes.

In a large pot, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add in carrots, cook for 1-2 minutes, then add in onion and celery. Season vegetables with 1 tablespoon of Montreal Steak seasoning. Cook until onions are translucent and the vegetables are just tender.

Add in water and chicken base, and bring it to a boil. Let it simmer over medium heat for 10-15 minutes.

Whisk flour and half-and-half or milk together vigorously. Pour into the pot and stir.

Add in frozen peas, potatoes, and cubed chicken, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of Montreal steak seasoning and salt and pepper to taste.

Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low and simmer. Cover with a lid cracked slightly to vent and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until thickened.

Remove from heat and let it sit for 5-10 minutes to cool, then serve and enjoy.

  1. This was fabulous! Just finished making it an hour ago, and I’ve already had two bowls for dinner! Thanks for sharing the Montreal Seasoning tip! I would never have thought to use this in soup! Now what else can I use this in?

  2. So glad I found your site! I was looking for a good chicken pot pie soup recipe to try, and made this for dinner last night. My husband and two year old daughter loved it and we just had great leftovers for lunch too. I’ll definitely make this again, and I’ll only use three tbsp of seasoning to make it more kid palatable (but never bland!)Thanks for posting this, it was a hit!

    1. You can find chicken base in your local grocery store typically above the chicken broth it comes in cubes or a powder form. Does this help?

  3. Thus looks so yummy making right now but don’t have,any Montreal Steak seasoning would I be able to use Season All or Emeril ‘s Original Essence instead?

  4. Made this tonight and it is soooo tasty. I mainly made it because I had leftover heavy cream from breakfast and 2 cups of chicken broth from another recipe I was sitting on. Luckily, I came across your great recipe! Super yummy on a day the weather got colder in New England. Thanks for posting!
