Ingredients

  • 2 grilled chicken breasts, sliced or shredded
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup small pasta (ditalini, elbow, or small shells)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (optional)
  • Fresh basil or parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
  3. Add crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, cook pasta separately according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  5. Stir grilled chicken and cooked pasta into the soup. Simmer for 5 minutes to heat through.
  6. Stir in Parmesan cheese. Top each serving with mozzarella and fresh basil or parsley, if using.
  7. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • Store pasta separately if planning for leftovers to avoid it soaking up too much broth.
  • Use store-bought grilled or rotisserie chicken for a time-saving shortcut.
  • Add spinach or kale near the end for a nutrient boost.
  • For a spicy kick, include red pepper flakes or use fire-roasted tomatoes.
  • Freeze soup without pasta and add fresh pasta when reheating.
