Italian-Style Chicken Soup

olive oil (for cooking chicken)

chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)

carrots (diced small)

onion (diced small)

celery (diced small)

tomato paste

salt (plus more to season chicken)

black pepper (plus more to season chicken)

herbs

pasta

spinach leaves

Parmesan cheese (for serving)

Season chicken with salt and pepper. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until browned on all sides. Remove chicken and set aside.

In the same pot, add chopped carrots, celery, and onion. Cook until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant – do not burn!

Add a small amount of chicken broth to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits. Add the tomato paste and cook until the color deepens a little.

Return the chicken to the pot. Add the remaining chicken broth, salt, pepper, and dried herbs. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked.

Take the chicken out of the pot and shred it. Set aside.

Add pasta and cook until al dente, about 8 to 10 minutes (a minute or two less than the directions on the box calls for). Add the fresh spinach a few minutes before the pasta is done, and return the shredded chicken to the pot.

Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve hot, garnished with plenty of grated Parmesan cheese and garnished with parsley.

Best soup ive ever had! Followed to a Tee, but used small shells for the pasta. Gonna add to my weekly rotation. YUM

Fab this, had all the ingredients on hand, had already got some fresh chicken stock I made yesterday (from a roasted chicken) for another meal, topped of the soup with some roasted baby plum tomatoes and roasted red capsicum peppers, some black pepper and parmesan, an extra drizzle of EV Olive oil, and made some Focaccia with olives to go with it, absolutely divine it was...

This was so good, great job putting this recipe together. The only changes I made was I did not have any spinach or carrots. But I know it will be awesome with spinach cause I love spinach! I used MUTTI tomato from Italy. And added a small amount of each of the spices suggested. and the Parmesan just was so awesome and low calorie  was important for me! Thanks for posting!
