Step-by-Step Instructions
- Season the boneless, skinless chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Place them at the bottom of the crockpot, ensuring they are spread out evenly.
- Chop the onion, mince the garlic, slice the carrots, and chop the celery. Carefully add these vibrant vegetables on top of the chicken in the crockpot.
- Spoon the pumpkin puree over the layered veggies, making sure to cover them for maximum flavor integration.
- Pour in the chicken broth, taking care to cover all ingredients well.
- Sprinkle the ground cumin, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper over the mixture. Stir gently.
- Cover the crockpot with its lid, setting it to cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours.
- Once the cooking time is up, carefully remove the chicken from the crockpot using tongs and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
- Stir in the heavy cream and cream cheese, blending well until smooth.
- Before serving, taste your soup and adjust the seasoning if needed.
- Ladle the warm soup into bowls, garnishing with fresh parsley or cilantro.
