I love a good soup. I think you all know that. I have been on a Vegetable Soup kick lately, and I typically am always on a Taco Soup kick.
I have been enjoying a nice and hearty, yet simple vegetable soup. I decided to add chicken to this one, much like when I added beef to make my Beef Vegetable Soup.
This Chicken Vegetable Soup is hearty and loaded with shredded chicken and veggies. Made in tomato broth this is a soup everyone will love.
How to make Chicken Vegetable Soup:
Soups are really easy to make. I love making them, so I find them very easy to make.
I start with simmering and sauteing the onions, so they are softened and cooked down a little. Once the onions are soft, I add in all the remaining ingredients, with the spices being the last to add to the pot.
Bring to a boil and then allow to simmer for about 20-25 minutes. Stir it occasionally during the simmer. Serve and enjoy!
Ingredient Notes:
- Oil or Butter – This is for sautéing the onions.
- Onion – I diced my onions very small but not minced
- Minced Garlic
- Cooked Chicken – you can use my All-Purpose Chicken for this recipe or use a rotisserie chicken.
- Frozen Mixed Vegetables
- Petite Diced Tomatoes
- Tomato Sauce
- Chicken Broth
- Seasoning – I used dried parsley, dried oregano. dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
Directions:
Step One – Heat soup pot with oil, butter, or cooking spray. Sauté diced onions for 2-3 minutes until translucent then add in minced garlic to cook for 30 seconds.
Step Two – To the same pot add in cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, petite diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and chicken broth. Last add all seasoning and mix (add more or less seasoning to taste).
Step Three – Bring soup to a boil then reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for 20-25 minutes. Remove from heat than serve and enjoy.
Can I use any veggies I want in this soup?
You can use any veggies you want. From frozen veggies to fresh anything will work. Dice up some fresh bell peppers, carrots, green beans if you prefer. Add some potatoes to make a Chunky Vegetable soup.
Can I freeze this soup?
Yes, you can freeze this soup. It is very easy to do.
Once you have cooked the soup, take it off the heat and allow to fully cool. You do not want to put anything hot in a freezer container or bag and then freeze it.
It is very important it is fully cool, as the steam that will come off in the freeze could cause your container to pop.
Tips and FAQ
Can this be made in the slow cooker? Yes, just follow step one then adds the cooked beef and all remaining ingredients to your slow cooker. Allow to cook for 5-6 hours on low or 3-4 hours on high.
Can this soup be frozen? Once cooked allow your soup to cool completely. Place soup in an airtight container and place in the freezer. Allow to that in the fridge and reheat on the stove top or microwave.
How to reheat this soup: Put it back on the stovetop in a pot and reheat at a medium heat until the soup gets to a slow rolling boil/simmer. You can also reheat in the microwave.

This soup is delicious! Easiest and tastiest recipe ever. The only thing I changed is I added some fresh dill.
This was great! My family loved it. I used leftover turkey from Thanksgiving. I did use a 16 oz can of tomato sauce instead of 8oz. My family has already ask for this to be a regular thing especially with the cold weather. Thank you!
Super easy and tasty! I even used canned chicken and it was great!
The best chicken vegetable soup I’ve ever made! Spot on! The whole family loved it. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe. It’s a keeper! Going to try it with beef next time instead of chicken.
Thank you so much Sherion! I am so glad you all liked the recipe.
