Ingredients

Soup

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 pounds chicken thighs cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 4 carrots diced
  • 2 celery stalks diced
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 4 cups chicken broth

  • 1/2 cup milk

Instructions

  • Heat the 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large soup pot over medium high heat.
  • Add the chicken, onion, carrots, and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Mix in the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Pour in the salt, black pepper, oregano, red pepper flakes, chicken broth, cream of mushroom soup, and milk. Stir everything together until it is fully combined.
  • Bring just to a boil and reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt.

  • Serve hot.
