How to make Keto Chicken Soup: step-by-step guide
Cooking methods
Making this comforting low-carb soup is flexible with different cooking methods to suit your preference or available tools. Traditionally, you'd simmer your chicken, veggies, and herbs on the stovetop - it's straightforward and effective. If you're looking for a hands-off approach, toss everything into a slow cooker and let it do its magic over several hours. Alternatively, for a quick and easy method, an Instant Pot is your best friend.
Cooking instructions
- Heat the ghee over medium heat in a 5-quart Dutch oven. Saute the carrots, celery, onions, and garlic for 3 minutes.
- Add in broth, chicken, parsley, peppercorns, and salt. Cover and let simmer for 30 minutes.
- While the soup is simmering, prepare the Miracle Noodles according to the package instructions. The drying step is unnecessary.
- Season with salt, herbs, and seasoning of your choice.
- Pull the chicken out, shred it with two forks or a pair of meat claws, and place it back in the Dutch oven along with the Miracle Noodles.
- Add some pepper flakes (optional) and garnish with parsley and serve.
Want to make our keto chicken soup even healthier?
Our keto chicken soup is already pretty healthy—it's low-carb and packed with protein. But here's how we can make it even healthier:
- Choose top-notch chicken: Go for organic or free-range chicken breasts that are free from antibiotics or hormones. This gives you tasty, tender chicken pieces.
- Pack in more veggies: We've got carrots, celery, and spinach in this recipe, but you can toss in more. Fresh veggies like bell peppers, zucchini, kale, green beans, or broccoli will add extra nutrients and keep it low-carb.
- Pick low-sodium broth: Too much sodium in chicken broth isn't great for your health. So, choose a low-sodium or no-sodium option.
- Sauté with healthy fats: Use virgin olive or avocado oil instead of less healthy fats or vegetable oils.
Keep in mind adding sour cream, cream cheese, or keto cream soup will up the calorie count. So, if you're aiming for a leaner dish, try to avoid these. Follow these tips, and you'll make this already healthy soup even better for you.
Serving tips
You can enjoy the delicious chicken soup as it is, but it can also be made fancy if it is the main course for any guests visiting.

Storage tips
If you've got leftover keto soup, here's how to store it safely. Move it to a container that's airtight and safe for the freezer, then pop it into the fridge as soon as you can. Make sure the soup is cool, at room temperature, before you store it, and try not to leave it out for over two hours. Stored in the fridge, your leftover soup should stay good for about three to four days.
