Description

This Cozy Rotisserie Chicken Mushroom Soup is a creamy, hearty, and comforting dish perfect for family dinners or quick healthy chicken soup nights. Featuring tender shredded rotisserie chicken, earthy mushrooms, fresh spinach, and a rich cream base, this soup is ideal for warming up during winter or when you need a comforting meal that’s simple to prepare.

Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 celery sticks, finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 500 g (1 lb) mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 3 cups spinach, chopped

Herbs & Spices

  • 2 tsp fresh thyme
  • Pinch of chili flakes
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Proteins

  • 1 rotisserie chicken, shredded

Liquids & Dairy

  • 6 cups stock (chicken or vegetable)
  • 1 cup cream
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Sauté Vegetables: In a large pot, melt butter or heat oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and finely chopped celery, cooking until they have softened and become translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Cook Mushrooms: Add the thinly sliced mushrooms to the pot and cook until they are golden brown and have released their moisture, about 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Add Aromatics and Herbs: Stir in the crushed garlic cloves and fresh thyme. Cook them for 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to bloom and become fragrant.
  4. Add Liquids: Pour in the 6 cups of stock followed by 1 cup of cream. Stir well and bring the soup to a gentle simmer. Let it cook uncovered for 5 minutes to meld the flavors and slightly thicken the soup.
  5. Add Chicken and Spinach: Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken, chopped spinach, and a pinch of chili flakes. Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the spinach has wilted and the chicken is heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and serve warm, ideally with a side of crusty bread for dipping.

Notes

  • Fridge Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–4 days.
  • Freezer Storage: Freeze for 2–3 months. Omit the cream before freezing and add it when reheating for best texture.
  • Meal Prep Tip: Freeze the shredded chicken and soup base separately to maintain the best texture upon reheating.
