Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 6 cups chicken broth
- 8 ounces rotini pasta
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese grated
- 2 cups chicken breast cooked and shredded
- 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 3 cups baby spinach
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant. Add the tomato paste and cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to deepen the flavor.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the rotini pasta and cook until tender, about 9-11 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, parmesan cheese, shredded chicken, sun-dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the soup is creamy and well combined.
- Add the baby spinach and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until wilted. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve hot, garnished with additional parmesan cheese or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
Feel free to use any pasta shape you prefer instead of rotini.
