For the Soup:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
For Garnish:
- Fresh parsley or basil, chopped
- Extra cheese (optional)
- Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, and optional red pepper flakes, cooking for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add Broth and Chicken: Pour in 4 cups of low-sodium chicken broth and add the shredded cooked chicken. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
- Cook Noodles: Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are tender but still al dente.
- Stir in Cream and Cheeses: Reduce the heat to low. Slowly stir in the heavy cream followed by the ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, and grated Parmesan. Mix thoroughly until the soup is smooth and creamy.
- Season and Serve: Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve the soup hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley or basil and extra cheese if desired.
Notes
- Use low-sodium chicken broth to control the salt content.
- For a spicier soup, add extra red pepper flakes to taste.
- Leftover shredded rotisserie chicken makes a quick option for cooked chicken.
- To make the soup ahead, prepare through step 4 and refrigerate; reheat gently before serving and add additional cream if needed.
- Gluten-free lasagna noodles can be used to adapt the recipe for gluten sensitivity.
