- 6 ounces cooked salmon
- 4 cups low sodium chicken stock
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 cup sliced carrots
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup sliced celery
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon dill
- 1 tablespoon parlsey
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Sautee the onions, carrots (omit if strict keto), celery, and garlic in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat in the oil until translucent, about 4-6 minutes.
Add the chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Simmer for about 10-12 minutes or until veggies are tender.
Chunk the salmon and add it to the simmering pot.
Add the cream and dill and season with salt and pepper. Add more to suit your taste.
Serve with some of the chopped parsley on top.
Recipe Card Tips
- Skip canned salmon. It disintegrates into the soup instead of staying in distinct chunks.
- Add the salmon toward the end of cooking so it stays intact instead of breaking apart.
- Use a good stock, homemade bone broth if you have it. It makes a real difference in the final flavor.
