Easy Healthy Chicken Broccoli Soup

Excellent recipe! I recommend substituting celery with green onions, and using oregano, thyme and Italian spices mix for herbs. Also try frying chicken a bit before adding it to the soup, don't forget adding salt and Espelette pepper. Delicious!

It was a lot of chopping for something nobody really cared for.

I also blended the soup at the end and added extra cornflour to make it smoother, definitely making this again. I also double the broccoli and the chicken. Made 8 decent portions!

Added a fresh jalapeno from our garden and increased amount of all things except the onion. For seasoning, basil, cardamom, gram masala. Oregano, adobo, pepper, and thyme. Also added a cup of shredded cheddar cheese during last 5 minutes. I boiled it longer than suggested to thicken it a bit more.

Substituted milk to almond milk and no cornflower for low sugar/dairy/gluten free meal

Season to your own individual taste. Great way to use leftover chicken.

I used oat milk and nutritional yeast

Really delicious simple meal. German boyfriend approved.

Unfortunately, I missed the part with putting in the broccoli cuts but it came out great! Followed everything else to a T. I used Italian seasoning. I couldn't resist sprinkling some shredded cheddar cheese on it. Perfect meal on a chilly night. Happy to have the leftovers.

Made mine vegetarian for my mother. Used vegetable stock, used potatos instead of cornstarch, and added a whole bunch of herbs and spices. It's hearty and yummy, though not sure if the main recipe is bland or not, as I modified it quite a bit. Will definitely be making this soup/stew again, but not so much cayenne pepper next time🌶️🔥🥵

Added quinoa to thicken it since I didn't have corn starch. Worked well with the flavors and made it filling.

Used a quart jar of chicken bone broth, 2 cups of water, and 5-6 chicken bouillon cubes in place of the broth and salt. I used precooked turkey, frozen cut up broccoli and carrots, and 2 Tbs lemon juice.

Boring. Won’t make again

Used herbs de provence; used better than boullion (one tsp chipolte flavor), and i added extra veggies since i didn't have enough broccoli. Delicious!

I don't really make creamy soups. This looked so good, I tried it. Husband really liked it, already put his request for me to make it again. I garnished w grated cheddar. I got goofed up w "corn flour". It really needs some kind of, "binder", or thickening ingredient. Next time corn starch, for sure. I had a little bit of wide egg noodles left over, so I tossed them in.

i made this recipe vegan by substituting everything that wasn’t vegan for my preferred options and the soup was incredible! Definitely gonna be a staple soup for this cold weather season! Very creamy and delicious, i added my own seasoning blends too and it was divine!

Added Oat-Milk instead of Milk and added some fresh Parsley in the last two minutes of shimmering the soup. I also used Leek instead of Celery. It's absolutely delicious and reminds me of my grandmother's soup :) Definitely going to cook it during the autumn/winter season!

I added some instant mashed potato flakes to thicken the soup and a few generous handfuls of shredded cheddar for flavor. Definitely taste and season as you go. I served it with crackers. After my tweaks, it was delicious!

Not sure one can even call this a soup. What a waste

This was really good! Admittedly, I don't measure my spices, but just throw in the amount that looks good. So, I didn't have any complaints about it being bland like others have mentioned. I did substitute coconut milk for the milk yo make it dairy free, and used arrowroot powder instead of corn flour. I would have probably used a different non-dairy milk had I had some on hand, but I can't say that I really noticed a coconut flavor to it. I also used homemade bone broth for the base. I will definitely make this again!

Zucchini instead of celery.

“It tastes like pepper water” is what the wife said. I didn’t find it bad but now I have to stomach 6 servings.

I misread the instructions so I didn’t use the broccoli stems. I cooking the broccoli with the carrots, onions, celery and added chopped baby bella mushrooms. I seasoned the veggies while sautéing with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Once done sautéing I put in the garlic then I used some chicken bone broth and mostly vegetable broth because that’s all I had. I used corn starch i stead of corn flour. Seasoned more with the same spices I listed above, along with the bay leaf, chili flakes and oregano. I also put in some grated Parmesan cheese while simmering. I juices one large lemon and used it while cooking for the last 15 minutes after adding the chicken. My son and I really enjoyed this soup.

blitzed the whole thing for a quick soup and I just added everything all at once. Didn't have cornmeal on hand so i used rice worked just the same. super delicious i highly recommend!

Can anyone tell me how many grams one serving is?

Add your own herbs and spices. I used homemade turkey stock. Delicious!

Really enjoyed, tasty I added 2 chicken bouillon cubes

So easy to do. I did add some extra spices for flavour, will be cooking again

Really good, but picky family didn't like, "too many veggies"

Used chicken thighs instead of breast and used garlic pepper instead of dried herbs. Would definitely make it again

Could use some more flavor, i added in some chili, garlic powder, turmeric, and a little bit of cayenne pepper, that made it really nice!

Perfect for a cold night with torrential rain

used some thyme and rosemary instead of the dried herbs. also use half a lemon's worth of juice, a whole one is far too much. added some more carrots and celery.

I used herbs de province which gave it a really nice flavor profile. The vegetables were just the right texture but it was still missing something, kind of bland. I added some onion powder and extra garlic, kicked up the salt/pepper/lemon, and a couple of handfuls of shredded cheddar and that did the trick. Right before adding the cheddar I strained out some of the herbs because they were chunky and affected the texture. (The flavor stayed) I wanted to bulk the soup up a bit so I added a bag of garlic quinoa/brown rice mix and it all came together very nicely 👌

it was a tad bland so i added extra italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and about 2 cups of shredded mild cheddar cheese. after this, i quite enjoyed it. the chicken is a great added protein source.

This was really good (but I suggest seasoning to your own preference). I expected the broccoli stalks to be weird but they were so good in this! This was a nice, filling, healthy soup and I will definitely make it again!
