Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound Chicken, boneless, skinless
- 15 ounces Pumpkin puree
- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Cream
- 1 teaspoon Sage, dried or freshly chopped
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- Olive oil, for sautéing

Instructions
- Sauté the aromatics: In a large pot, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add your diced onion and sauté until it becomes translucent—about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook for another minute, just until fragrant.
- Cook the chicken: Add the chicken to the pot, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the chicken is no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes.
- Introduce the pumpkin: Stir in the pumpkin puree, mixing it well with the chicken and aromatics.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Add cream and sage: After about 10 minutes of simmering, stir in the cream and sage.
- Blend (optional): Use an immersion blender to puree some of the soup if desired.
- Taste and adjust: Check the seasoning and adjust flavors as needed.
