Equipment

  • Crockpot

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups pumpkin puree canned or fresh
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup carrots, sliced
  • 1 cup celery, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup cream cheese, softened
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of the crockpot. Season them with salt, pepper, and half of the cumin, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  • Layer the diced onion, minced garlic, sliced carrots, and chopped celery evenly over the chicken.
  • Pour the pumpkin puree over the top of the vegetables.
  • Add the chicken broth to the crockpot, ensuring everything is submerged.
  • Sprinkle the remaining cumin, cinnamon, and nutmeg over the mixture. Stir gently to combine.
  • Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
  • Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts from the pot and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken back into the crockpot.
  • Stir in the heavy cream and softened cream cheese until fully blended and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls, garnishing with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and fresh flavor.
  • Serve warm with crusty bread or crackers for dipping!
