Description

This hearty chicken potato soup is a great alternative to chicken noodle soup. With celery, carrots, and potatoes, it's a comforting meal for colder days.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, diced
1 pinch seasoned salt, or to taste
ground black pepper to taste
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups water
2 large russet potatoes, quartered and thinly sliced
2 carrots, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste

Directions

1 Gather the ingredients.
2 Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Season chicken with seasoned salt and pepper, add to the pot, and cook, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes.
3 Add onion and cook until almost translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until slightly browned, about 2 minutes.
4 Stir in broth, water, potatoes, carrots, and celery; cook until potatoes and carrots are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and cayenne.
5 Serve hot and enjoy!
