Chicken Mushroom Soup Recipe

This Indian-style Chicken Mushroom Soup is a hearty, high-protein broth that combines lean poultry with the earthy richness of button mushrooms. By using an Indian "Shorba" base, it avoids heavy creams and flours, relying instead on a flavorful tempering of ginger, garlic, and freshly cracked black pepper. The combination provides an excellent source of Vitamin D, B12, and Selenium, making it a perfect recovery meal for immunity and muscle repair. It’s a light yet deeply satisfying soup that balances the savory "umami" of mushrooms with traditional warming spices.

Add Mushrooms & Simmer
Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté on high heat until they shrink and release their aroma. Pour in the stock/water and salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer on low heat for 12–15 minutes until the chicken is tender.
