Chicken Alfredo Soup

The Story & Intro

Bonjour my friends! 👋 I’m Lacamorea, a 31-year-old French girl who traded the cobblestone streets of Paris for the cozy kitchens of America 🇫🇷➡️🇺🇸. Ever since I could reach the countertop, I’ve been whisking, stirring, and sneaking tastes of cake batter when no one was looking 🍰😋. Cooking isn’t just my passion it’s my love language, my therapy, and my favorite way to make people smile.

Chicken Alfredo Soup has a very special place in my heart. I still remember the first chilly fall evening I made it in my tiny American apartment, wearing fuzzy socks, jazz music humming softly in the background, and a pot bubbling away on the stove. I was feeling homesick, craving comfort not quite pasta, not quite soup something creamy, warm, and indulgent enough to hug me from the inside out 🤍.

That’s when Chicken Alfredo Soup was born in my kitchen. Inspired by the classic Italian-American Alfredo pasta we all adore, this soup version is even cozier. It’s rich, creamy, packed with tender chicken, and finished with parmesan goodness that feels downright luxurious without being complicated.

What I love most about Chicken Alfredo Soup is how it brings people together. One pot, a big ladle, and suddenly everyone is hovering around the stove asking, “Is it ready yet?” It’s perfect for cold nights, busy weekdays, or anytime you want comfort without effort. Trust me once you try this Chicken Alfredo Soup, it’ll become a repeat recipe in your home too 🍲✨

🛒 Ingredients

Here’s everything you’ll need to make this creamy Chicken Alfredo Soup at home. Simple ingredients, big flavor.

• 2 tablespoons butter 🧈
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 small onion, finely diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 celery stalks, chopped
• 2 carrots, finely diced
• 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced 🍗
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 2 cups heavy cream 🥛
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 ½ cups grated parmesan cheese 🧀
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• ½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ cup small pasta (ditalini, rotini, or broken fettuccine) 🍝
• Optional: chopped parsley or basil for garnish 🌿

👩‍🍳 Instructions

Let’s cook together — slowly, joyfully, and with love 💛

1. Start with flavor
   In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter with olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, celery, and carrots. Sauté for 4–5 minutes until softened and fragrant.
2. Add the garlic
   Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds, just until aromatic. Don’t let it brown — garlic should smell sweet, not bitter.
3. Build the soup base
   Pour in the chicken broth and bring everything to a gentle boil. Reduce heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes so the vegetables become tender.
4. Add the chicken
   Stir in the cooked chicken. This is when the soup starts to feel hearty and comforting.
5. Creamy magic
   Lower the heat and slowly add the heavy cream and milk. Stir gently and let it warm through never boil at this stage.
6. Season it beautifully
   Add Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Taste and adjust this soup loves attention.
7. Pasta time
   Stir in the pasta and simmer for 8–10 minutes, until al dente. Stir often so nothing sticks.
8. Finish with parmesan
   Remove from heat and slowly stir in the parmesan cheese until fully melted and silky smooth.
9. Rest & serve
   Let the Chicken Alfredo Soup rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs and extra parmesan if your heart desires 💕
