This Creamy Chicken Soup is rich, flavorful, and as delicious as Grandma’s chicken soup but with a creamy twist. Instead of long-simmered stock, we start with our chicken BONED Broth and water then enrich this soup with vegetables, leftover chicken and milk. We adapted this recipe from a Filipino classic – Chicken Sopas from panlasangpinoy.com.
Milk makes this chicken soup version rich and creamy. We used evaporated milk for this recipe. Alternative ingredients for this type of milk includes fresh milk, powdered milk mixed in water, and whipping cream. You just might have this added to your list of soup staples especially when the cold weather comes.
