The other night I was making one of our family's favorite dinners,
Comfy in the Kitchen's Crescent Chicken. when I realized I was out of the canned Cream of Chicken Soup that I normally keep stocked in my pantry. I found a
Pinch of Yum recipe for homemade Cream of Chicken Soup. It looked surprisingly easy so I thought I would give it a try!
Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup
2.5 cups chicken broth
1.5 cups milk
3/4 cup flour
Seasoning Mix: 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of parsley.
In a saucepan pour the chicken broth and 1/2 cup of milk, bring it to a low boil. In a seperate bowl combine the flour, seasoning mix and 1 cup milk until smooth. Stir the flour mixture into the broth and milk over a low boil, stirring constantly for 5 minutes. It will become thickened as you stir.
This recipe makes the equivalent of two cans of condensed Cream of Chicken Soup.
I was very happy how the soup turned out and I especially like that it doesn't have any preservatives in it. With that said, I'm not totally against the convenience of the canned soup.
