Creamy Italian Chicken Soup


  • Author: Chef Lalybeth

Description

A rich and comforting soup featuring tender chicken, vegetables, and pasta in a creamy, herb-infused broth.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 2 stalks celery, sliced
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup ditalini pasta, uncooked
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add diced chicken and cook until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté for 5 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and diced tomatoes. Stir in the Italian seasoning and bring the soup to a boil.
  4. Add the ditalini pasta and cooked chicken to the pot. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until pasta is al dente.
  5. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream and fresh spinach. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until spinach is wilted. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Notes
