Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped, in oil
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes or to taste
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups cooked chicken shredded, rotisserie or homemade
  • 1 cup heavy cream or coconut milk for dairy-free
  • 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • 2 cups spinach fresh
  • salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Large Soup Pot

Method
 

  1. Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant.
  2. Add sun-dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 1 minute to release flavors.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and add shredded chicken. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
  4. Lower the heat and stir in heavy cream and Parmesan. Simmer gently until cheese is melted and soup is creamy.
  5. Add fresh spinach and cook just until wilted. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve hot.

Notes

Use sun-dried tomatoes in oil for richer flavor. Avoid boiling the soup after adding cream. Optional: splash in white wine before broth for added depth. Great with crusty bread or garlic knots.
