Ingredients

Scale

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)

Instructions

  1. 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. Add the minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, and red pepper flakes (if using), and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  2. Add Broth and Chicken: Pour in the chicken broth and add the shredded cooked chicken. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
  3. Cook Noodles: Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are cooked al dente.
  4. Stir in Cream and Cheeses: Reduce heat to low, then slowly stir in the heavy cream, ricotta cheese, shredded mozzarella, and grated Parmesan. Stir continuously until the soup becomes smooth, creamy, and well combined.
  5. Season and Serve: Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot, garnished with fresh chopped parsley or basil and extra cheese if desired.

Notes

  • Use low-sodium chicken broth to control the salt content of the soup.
  • For a spicier soup, increase the red pepper flakes or add crushed chili flakes.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
  • Cooked chicken can be shredded rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • Make sure to break lasagna noodles into bite-sized pieces so they cook evenly and are easy to eat.
