This is a totally comforting soup with amazing flavors. We love to serve it on Game Day at our house, but honestly it’s a great dinner for any time of year.
🛒 Ingredients Needed:
- boneless, skinless chicken thighs

✏️ How to make Buffalo Chicken Soup:
*The complete, printable recipe is in the recipe card at the end of this post.
- In the slow cooker insert, combine the chicken, beans, tomatoes (with juice), broth, ¼ cup buffalo wing sauce, onion powder, garlic powder and salt. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board. Shred the chicken with two forks or cut it into small pieces. Return the chicken to the slow cooker. Cut the cream cheese into cubes and stir them into the ingredients in the slow cooker.
➡️ Tips and Substitutions:
- It’s definitely okay to use chicken breast instead of chicken thighs. Chicken thighs will stay more tender.
- Feel free to fiddle with the amount of buffalo sauce added in. Start with 1/4 cup. If you want the soup to be more spicy, add some more.
- It’s okay to use reduced-fat cream cheese.
When the cream cheese is melted and incorporated into the chili, ladle the chili into bowls and serve.
✔️ Storage instructions:
This soup will last up to 4 days in the refrigerator or 4 to 6 months in the freezer. Store in an airtight container.
Top with blue cheese crumbles and some celery sticks on the side!
❤️ What I Love About This Recipe:
- It’s a thicker soup- almost like a chili. So it’s totally filling and comforting!
