Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lb cooked chicken breast, shredded (or rotisserie chicken)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 8 lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
- 2 cups baby spinach (or kale)
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
Step 1: Sauté Aromatics
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add diced onion and cook until soft, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 2: Build the Base
- Add shredded chicken, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir to combine.
- Pour in chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil.
Step 3: Cook the Noodles
- Add broken lasagna noodles to the pot. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender.
Step 4: Make it Creamy
- Lower the heat and stir in heavy cream and cream cheese until fully melted and incorporated.
- Add spinach, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese, stirring until the cheese is melted and the soup is thick and creamy.
Step 5: Serve
- Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
Notes
- Don’t Overcook the Noodles: Cook them until al dente, as they’ll continue to soften in the soup.
- Use Rotisserie Chicken: A great time-saver and adds extra flavor.
- Make It Ahead: The soup thickens as it sits, so prepare the base ahead and add the noodles just before serving.
