A rich and comforting creamy roasted garlic chicken soup made with tender shredded chicken, mellow roasted garlic, and a silky cream based broth that is perfect for cozy meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked and shredded boneless skinless chicken (about 300 grams)
  • 2 whole garlic bulbs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (30 ml)
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped (about 150 grams)
  • 4 cups chicken broth (960 ml)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (240 ml)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 C.
  2. Slice the tops off the garlic bulbs, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast for 30 to 35 minutes until soft and golden.
  3. In a large soup pot over medium heat, add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and sauté the chopped onion for about 5 minutes until translucent.
  4. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves into the pot and stir to combine.
  5. Add the shredded chicken and chicken broth. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer.
  6. Simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
  7. Blend the soup carefully using an immersion blender until smooth and creamy.
  8. Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Simmer gently for 5 more minutes without boiling.
  9. Ladle into bowls, garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Roast the garlic until soft and lightly golden to avoid bitterness.
  • Do not boil the soup after adding cream to maintain a smooth texture.
  • Use rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • For freezing, omit the cream and add it when reheating.
