Sauté Veggies: In a large pot over medium heat, melt unsalted butter and add onion, celery, and carrots. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for another minute.
Add Seasonings: To the pot, add onion powder, garlic powder, dried parsley, kosher salt, black pepper, chicken broth, and Buffalo sauce. Stir to combine and let simmer until the carrots soften, about 10 minutes.
Add Cream Cheese: Reduce the heat to low and add cream cheese. Whisk until smooth and combined.
Stir in Chicken, Garnish, and Serve: Stir in cooked, shredded chicken. Garnish with a crumble of blue cheese and chopped green onion if desired.
Alyssa’s Pro Tip
Cream Cheese: Cream cheese adds the perfect creaminess, balancing out the heat of the buffalo sauce. Cut it into small pieces so it melts quickly and evenly into the soup.
