Ingredients (8 servings)

  • 1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 5-6 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 large carrots peeled and diced
  • 1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and diced
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 3/4 cup plain whole milk Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cups frozen peas
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen riced cauliflower
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish, chopped

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil and butter in Dutch oven over medium heat.
  • Sauté onion and garlic with salt and pepper until soft, 2-3 minutes.
  • Add rosemary, oregano, carrots, potatoes, and chicken broth.
  • Add chicken thighs, bring to simmer, cook 10-12 minutes until chicken is done.
  • Remove chicken, cool slightly, chop into bite-sized pieces.
  • Simmer soup 5-8 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  • Blend 3 cups of soup (mostly potatoes) with Greek yogurt and Worcestershire sauce until smooth.
  • Return blended mixture to pot with chopped chicken, peas, and riced cauliflower.
  • Heat through and season to taste.
  • Garnish with parsley and serve.

Notes

Greek yogurt can be substituted with sour cream. Blending some of the potatoes creates creaminess without heavy cream.
