Ingredients

Scale

Soup Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (preferably not in oil, chopped)
  • 1 cup pasta (small shapes like ditalini or orzo)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Broth and Chicken: In a large pot, bring 4 cups of chicken broth to a gentle boil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until fully cooked through, about 15-20 minutes. Remove the chicken from the broth and set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Cook the Pasta: To the simmering broth, add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, generally 8-10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Shred the Chicken: While the pasta cooks, shred the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces using two forks or your hands.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Return the shredded chicken to the pot with the pasta and broth. Stir in the cream and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Continue to simmer gently for another 5 minutes to blend flavors, ensuring the soup is heated through without boiling.
  5. Season and Serve: Taste the soup and add salt and pepper as desired. Serve hot, optionally garnishing with fresh herbs like parsley or basil for added freshness.

Notes

  • Use sun-dried tomatoes that are not packed in oil for a less oily soup, or drain well if using oil-packed.
  • For a thicker soup, you can add a slurry of flour or cornstarch and water before the final simmer.
  • Substitute heavy cream with half-and-half for a lighter version.
  • Use gluten-free pasta to make the soup gluten-free.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
