Rotisserie Chicken Pot Pie Soup With Cornbread "Croutons"
This simple, kid-friendly soup is fast to throw together … and gluten-free if you use a flour-free cornbread and make sure your chicken doesn’t use any gluten-based seasonings.
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 large sweet potato, cut in ½" cubes
- 1 large onion, diced
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 1 (16-ounce) bag frozen mixed vegetables, thawed*
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
- Meat from boned and skinned rotisserie chicken
- 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1½ teaspoons each salt and pepper
- Pan of baked cornbread, cubed (use gluten-free, if desired)
Directions
Melt butter in heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add potato, onion and celery. Toss with butter and sauté about 5 minutes until tender.
Stir in mixed vegetables and cook 4 to 5 minutes until green beans are tender. Add cornstarch and toss to coat. Cook 2 minutes. Whisk in broth and milk. Heat until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and add chicken and seasonings. If too thick, add a bit more broth for desired consistency.
Ladle into bowls and top with cornbread “croutons.”
*Corn, peas, carrots, green beans mix
TIP: Overnight broth
Get the rotisserie chicken a day ahead and remove the meat. Put the skin and bones in your slow cooker with a quart or two of water and turn on low before heading to bed. In the morning, drain and chill this flavorful broth for use in your soup. Any extra broth can be frozen.

So glad you found my recipe. There's nothing like a tender and juicy Sunday eve roasted chicken... especially on chilly fall days when inside and it makes the house smell SO good. I always make broth too... when I cook chicken or pick up a rotisserie chicken. No waste here... those bones make liquid gold! I usually throw in my crock pot when I head to bed on low with veggie scraps and wake up to warm seasoned broth. Sometimes I'll sip on some for breakfast!
I love crunchy chicken skin too... so I've started taking the skin off the rotisserie chickens I buy and put in my toaster oven and "toast" them for chicken skin chips! I don't have many... but my little treat! Also good crumbled on a salad too.
I hope you will let me know how you like this recipe.
