Ranch Chicken and Rice Soup

Prep Time: 10 mins | Cook Time: 25 mins | Total Time: 35 mins
Servings: 4-6

Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs (diced)

  • 1 small onion, diced

  • 2 carrots, diced

  • 2 celery stalks, diced

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 tsp dried thyme

  • 1 tsp dried parsley

  • 1 packet (1 oz) ranch seasoning mix (or 2 tbsp homemade ranch seasoning)

  • 4 cups chicken broth

  • 1 cup water

  • 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice (or pre-cooked rice for faster prep)

  • 1 cup half-and-half or heavy cream (for creaminess)

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

  • Salt & pepper to taste

  • Fresh parsley or chives for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Sauté Vegetables & Chicken

    • Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 3-4 mins until softened.

    • Add garlic, thyme, and parsley, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.

    • Push veggies aside and add diced chicken. Cook until no longer pink (5-6 mins).

  2. Add Broth & Seasonings

    • Stir in ranch seasoning, chicken broth, and water. Bring to a boil.

    • Add rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 mins (or until rice is tender).

  3. Finish with Cream & Cheese

    • Stir in half-and-half (or cream) and shredded cheese (if using). Simmer for 2-3 mins until creamy.

    • Adjust salt & pepper to taste.

  4. Serve & Enjoy!

    • Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley or chives.

Tips & Variations:

  • For a shortcut: Use rotisserie chicken & pre-cooked rice (add at the end).

  • Crockpot version: Combine all ingredients (except cream & cheese) and cook on low 4-6 hrs. Stir in dairy before serving.

  • Dairy-free? Use coconut milk instead of cream.

This soup is comforting, creamy, and packed with ranch flavor—perfect for chilly days! Would you like a lighter or spicier version? 😊
