Ingredients
- chicken breasts
- onion
- garlic
- sun‑dried tomatoes
- tomato paste
- chicken broth
- pasta shells
- heavy cream
- Parmesan
- spinach
- fresh parsley
- basil
Instructions
- 1Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper (or your preferred seasoning) and cook them in a large pot over medium‑high heat until they are browned on the outside and no longer pink inside; then remove and set aside to cool.
- 2In the same pot, add a little oil if needed and sauté the diced onion until translucent, about 3–4 minutes.
- 3Add the minced garlic and chopped sun‑dried tomatoes, cooking for another 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
- 4Stir in the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly, until it deepens to a brick‑red color, about 2 minutes.
- 5Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
- 6Add the pasta shells and cook according to package directions, usually 8–10 minutes, until al dente.
- 7Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan, and the bag of spinach; simmer for 2–3 minutes until the spinach wilts and the soup is creamy.
- 8While the soup is simmering, dice the cooked chicken breasts into bite‑size pieces and return them to the pot, stirring to combine.
- 9Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then ladle the soup into bowls.
- 10Garnish each serving with chopped fresh parsley, chopped basil, and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan, if desired.
