Can I make Marry Me Chicken Soup ahead of time?

Yes, you can make it a day in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat gently on the stove. If it thickens too much, stir in a splash of chicken broth or cream before serving.

What’s the best way to store leftovers?

Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. The flavors actually deepen overnight, making it taste even better the next day. For longer storage, freeze in portions for up to 2 months and thaw in the fridge before reheating.

Can I make this soup dairy-free?

Absolutely. Swap the heavy cream for full-fat coconut milk and use a dairy-free Parmesan alternative. You’ll still get a creamy texture with a slightly different flavor.

What side dishes go well with Marry Me Chicken Soup?

Crusty bread, garlic knots, or a crisp green salad pair perfectly. For heartier nights, serving it with rice or pasta on the side makes it extra filling.
