Bring some fun and big flavor to soup season with the popular chicken main dish that’s turned into a soup. The soup is just as craveable with that signature, delicious combination of sun-dried tomatoes, chicken, spinach and basil.
Prep & Cook Instructions
- Heat sundried tomato oil in a Dutch oven (5-6 qt.) over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; cook about 3 minutes until onion is softened. Add tomato paste and red pepper flakes; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly, until paste coats onion and darkens slightly.
- Add stock, 2 cups water, coarsely chopped sun-dried tomatoes and oregano. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add pasta; return to a boil and reduce heat to medium-high. Cook pasta al dente according to package directions, stirring frequently.
- Stir in cream cheese until melted. Do not boil. Add chicken and spinach; cook about 2 minutes, stirring often, until the spinach is wilted, and the chicken is heated through. Season to taste. Serve topped with basil and Parmesan.
NOTE: Each 2 lb. rotisserie chicken has about 4 cups of meat.
