Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 (10 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
  • 8 ounces lasagna noodles, broken into small pieces
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, packed
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 to 7 minutes. You do not need to cook them through completely.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced tomatoes (with their juice). Bring the mixture to a boil.
  5. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes to cook the chicken through.
  6. Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.
  7. Stir in the cream of chicken soup, heavy cream, and the broken lasagna noodles. Bring the soup back to a gentle simmer.
  8. Cook, stirring often to prevent the noodles from sticking, until the lasagna noodles are tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
  9. Stir in the fresh spinach until it wilts, about 1 minute.
  10. Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese and the mozzarella cheese until the cheeses are melted and the soup is creamy.
  11. Serve immediately with extra Parmesan cheese on top.

Notes

  • Breaking the lasagna noodles into small, bite-sized pieces before adding them helps them cook evenly in the soup.
  • If you want a richer flavor, substitute 1 cup of the chicken broth with 1 cup of your favorite Alfredo sauce.
  • For a heartier meal, add 1/2 cup of frozen peas along with the spinach.
