20-Minute Cheesy Chicken Soup is FAST thanks to pre-cooked chicken
This 20-Minute Cheesy Chicken Soup is Made with either leftover chicken, ready-to-eat frozen, or a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store. Eliminating chicken cooking time gets this meal on the table fast! Add in frozen veggie mix, a potato, and Velveeta cheese to create a hearty satisfying soup to warm you from the inside out.

I ALWAYS make my soups with broth instead of water. It adds a wonderful depth of flavor. I never stock broth in the fridge; I opt to stock up on chicken bouillon cubes instead so I can make broth whenever I need it!

Just look at all that delicious Cheesy Chicken Soup goodness!
I would absolutely serve this soup with some crusty French or Italian bread to dip into your soup. It just makes it that much more delicious!

Description
This easy 20-Minute Cheesy Chicken Soup comes together quickly thanks to leftover cooked chicken, frozen veggies, and Velveeta cheese. The perfect weeknight dinner that will warm you from the inside out. Even better when served with crusty bread.
Ingredients
- 1 large russet potato, peeled and chopped into bite-size pieces
- 4 cups chopped cooked chicken
- 2 cans of cream of chicken soup (the standard 10 1/2 ounce size)
- 2 cups frozen pea and carrot mix
- 3 and 1/2 cups chicken broth (I make mine from handy bullion cubes)
- 16 ounces Velveeta cheese, cubed
Instructions
- Place the chopped potato into a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave for 4 minutes.
- While the potato cooks, combine the chicken, cream of chicken soup, frozen vegetables, and chicken broth in a large stovetop Dutch oven. Stir to combine, then stir in the potato when it’s finished softening in the microwave. Bring the soup to a boil, then cover and cook on low for 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the cheese until completely melted. Serve warm.
