#Recipes : Chicken Parmesan Soup
All of the flavours of chicken parmesan in a hearty soup that is pure comfort food!
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning or oregano
- 6 ounces pasta (gluten free for gluten free)
- 1/2 cup parmigiano reggiano (parmesan), grated
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 handful basil, chopped
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large sauce pan over medium heat, add the onion and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the garlic, red pepper flakes and fennel and cook until fragrant, about a minute.
- Add the chicken broth, chicken, tomatoes, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper, bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes before adding the pasta and simmering until it is cooked al-dente, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the chicken, shred and mix it back into the soup.
- Mix in the parmesan until it melts, season with salt and pepper to taste, mix in the basil, remove from heat and enjoy!
Slow Cooker: Optionally implement steps 1 & 2, place everything but the pasta, cheese and basil into the slow cooker and cook for 6-10 hours on low or 2-4 hours on high before shredding the chicken, adding the pasta cheese and cooking on high until the pasta is cooked al-dente, about 10 minutes
Note: If you have the time this soup will benefit from being simmered longer before adding the pasta and if you have parmesan rinds, throw them in for the long simmer!
Option: Add some extra vegetables like diced zucchini.
