Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 8 oz uncooked pasta (penne or rotini)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken breasts in the crock pot and add chicken broth, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes. Stir to combine.
  2. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
  3. Remove the chicken from the crock pot, shred it using two forks, and return it to the pot.
  4. Add the uncooked pasta and stir. Cover and cook on high for another 20-25 minutes, until the pasta is tender.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and shredded mozzarella until melted and well combined.
  6. Serve warm, garnished with fresh basil or parsley.

Notes

  • Best Chicken Choice: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts work best, but chicken thighs can add extra juiciness.
  • Pasta Cooking Tip: Add the pasta near the end of cooking to prevent it from becoming mushy. If making ahead, cook pasta separately and add it when reheating.
  • Make It Thicker: If you prefer a thicker soup, stir in a little extra Parmesan or a cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water).
  • Spice It Up: Want more heat? Add extra red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
  • Storage: Store in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. For best results, freeze without pasta and add fresh pasta when reheating.
  • Dairy-Free Option: Swap heavy cream for coconut milk and use nutritional yeast instead of cheese for a dairy-free version.

Enjoy your cozy, creamy Chicken Parmesan Soup! 😊🍜
