Ingredients

Scale

For the Soup:

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1–1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, diced into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning, divided
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup diced carrots
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • 1/4 cup diced sun-dried tomatoes
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste (optional)
  • 6–8 cups chicken broth
  • 6 oz pasta (such as small shells)
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2–1 cup grated Parmesan Reggiano cheese
  • 2 1/2–3 cups fresh spinach

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, 1 teaspoon of Italian Seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes.
  2. Add the onions, carrots, celery, sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic. Cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle the flour throughout and stir well. Add tomato paste if desired.
  4. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, stirring to avoid lumps. Deglaze the pan.
  5. Bring to a boil, add pasta and Italian seasoning. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
  6. Stir in cream, spinach, and Parmesan. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  7. Adjust seasoning to taste before serving.

Notes

  • You can customize this soup by adding other vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers.
  • If you prefer a thicker soup, add more flour for a roux or simmer longer to reduce the broth.
