Recipe: Chicken Pot Pie Soup and Lone Star Steakhouse Chicken Pot Pie Soup (copycat) for K

Hi Kathy:-) here are two recipes that I found for you on the internet. I have not tried either one. In the first, some people who tried it suggested only adding half the amount of milk so that the soup would be thicker. Some also said that they added some precooked cubed potatoes. Others suggested topping the soup with pieces of prebaked pie crust. I hope that one of these recipes will be similar to the one you had that you loved.

Cook chicken, in water, for about 4-5 hours. Turn often and keep covered. Skim fat as needed but don't remove all fat. Transfer chicken to a plate to cool.

Keep broth simmering on low. Add two small cans of mixed vegetables, minus the liquid from one can.

When chicken is cool, tear into small bites and add to broth. Add chicken bouillon, poultry seasoning, sage, pearl onions, pepper and salt.

Bake two Pillsbury pie crusts according to package directions and let cool. Set aside.

In a shaker jar, mix flour, corn starch and milk. Shake until smooth. Add slowly to the broth, stirring constantly. Add Kitchen Bouquet and stir until smooth, adding more milk if necessary.

Pour into bowls over the top of crumbled pie crust. Add a bit more crust on top.
