New Cooking Video!
So get this. When I made this soup, both my sister-in-law and my husband said this was the best soup they had ever eaten. And believe me…they aren’t ones to toss around compliments, especially when it comes to food. These two could care less about food. Sometimes my sister-in-law will tell me that she forgot to eat until 4pm. What.The.F*ck. When she says some bullsh*t like that, I’m disappointed in being related to her. But I like to think that maybe I came into her life to help open her eyes to the love of food. And I succeeded for once with this soup! And guess what? It’s totes perfect for the Super Bowl this weekend!
Speaking of the Super Bowl, I’ve been trying to decide how I want to celebrate the end of football season on Sunday. I’m thinking about getting some work done in the AM, getting some photos of a recipe done, then going to grab a gluten free donut and maybe skip through the park while I chow down. Doesn’t that sound wonderful? Answer: yes.
Soooooo I don’t know if I’m just way behind or if I’m ahead of the curve but I have found my new favorite show on Netflix and already binged watched all the seasons. Have you watched Wentworth yet?! It’s like an Australian version of Orange is the New Black but 100% better. We got bored after the first season of OISNB and stopped watching it. But Wentworth is addictive. It’s sooooooo good. Please go watch it so we can talk incessantly about it! GO! (it’s soooooo much better than just watching football)
OMG, you guys. Ever since I’ve been back in Denver, I’ve been grumpy. Probably because social media has been exhausting and people keep biting my head off any chance they can get. But also the cold weather after being in Arizona for a few days is just dragging me down! BUT just the other day, a friend texted me a photo of an absolutely adorable english bulldog that was for sale because the family of 6 just couldn’t take care of her anymore. We’ve been thinking about getting Jackson a brother or sister for a while, but we decided to just let it happen and if something comes up, we will look into it. Well, this adorable little girl came onto our radar and my husband said we should sleep on it before contacting the owner. The next day he told me to text the owner and guess what? Someone already picked her up. I got myself all excited about Jackson having a new friend and now I’m totally bummed. Poop.
I think the Sunday gluten free donut will make everything better.
Game Day Instant Pot Buffalo Chicken Soup
- Yield: 4-6 1x
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- 1 cup diced carrots
- 1 cup diced celery
- 1/2 white onion, minced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 cups cauliflower florets (I used a frozen bag of cauliflower that was defrosted – it cooks quicker and a little better)
- 32 ounces chicken bone broth
- 2/3 cup Frank’s Red Hot Sauce (less if you don’t like it as spicy)
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 rotisserie chicken, pulled and shredded
- fresh cilantro, for garnish
- chopped green onions, for garnish
- Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil Ranch, for garnish
Instructions
- Place ghee in the basin of the instant pot then press the sauté button. Once the ghee begins to melt, add the carrots, celery, onion and garlic and sauté for about 5 minutes, until onion becomes translucent.
- Press the keep warm/cancel button, add the cauliflower, chicken broth, hot sauce and a hefty pinch of both salt and pepper, then secure the lid, close off the pressure valve and press the Soup button. This will cook for 30 minutes once it comes up to pressure. Once the soup is done cooking, you can let it naturally release or do a quick release. Once you remove the lid, use an immersion blender to blend the soup until completely smooth. Taste to see if the soup needs any extra salt or pepper.
- Turn the soup back onto the Saute function and add the rotisserie chicken and let cook down for 8-10 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes to keep from sticking. Press the keep warm/cancel button before serving.
- Garnish soup with a swirl of ranch, hot sauce, green onions and cilantro.

Hey girl! Please don’t laugh ???? if this is a dumb question. I don’t have one of those hand blenders. Can I pour the soup into a mixer and mix it, then put back into the pot?
yes that totally works!!
Can’t wait to try this! I’m not a carrot fan – any suggestions for a substitution?
not for this specific recipe. you could always just leave them out, it just won’t taste exactly the same or be the same texture
Made this last night and my boyfriend and I absolutely loved it! You always have the best recipes, Juli! Thanks so much!!
that’s awesome!! so glad you guys loved it!!
Is there a way to cook the chicken in the instant pot with this recipe? I don’t have access to a precooked rotisserie chicken this weekend. But want to make it for the playoffs
yep, just cook the chicken before you make the soup!
How can I make this in the crockpot since I don’t own an instant pot?
i haven’t made it in the crockpot so i can’t say for sure
Juli this is so delicious and I love that you thought to use a rotisserie chicken. I made it tonight and my husband and I are already planning when we can make it again, probably for the super bowl! Happy post-football season!
I LOOOOOVE Wentworth! It is so much better than OINB, in my opinion. I can’t wait for a new season! My sis-in-law got me hooked and I thank her profusely!
I made this recipe the other day, and I only had a food processor, which was not adequate in blended the soup to be creamy. Just a “heads up” for any others who might attempt this. I also added a bit of greek yogurt to cool me heavy-hand with the Frank’s.
Sorry for the typos!!! Geez… 🙂
I REALLY REALLY LOVE this soup! It’s sooooooo good and I love that it’s just a whole bunch of vegetables under the guise of buffalo chicken 😉 so smart and tasty, thank you for another winner! Love all of your recipes and I can’t wait to make more IP recipes since I just got mine!
Hands down, if you are a wing lover like me… this takes the cake! Thanks Julie for this amazing soup! It made my Thursday night awesome and now I am super pumped for Friday’s lunch!
glad you liked it, shae!
Love this! Thank you so much. My son and I used to love the buffalo wing soup from the local supermarket. However, as you can imagine the list of ingredients was not on the healthier side. This is delicious, easy and healthy. Thank you!
