Creamy, savory, and full of flavor—this comforting chicken soup is packed with herbs, sun-dried tomatoes, and tender chicken.

Ingredients

For the Soup Base:

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cubed

1 tbsp olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp dried basil

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

2 cups baby spinach or kale, chopped

1 tbsp lemon juice (optional, for brightness)

For the Garnish:

Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Extra Parmesan for topping (optional)

Instructions

Cook the Chicken:
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside.

Sauté the Aromatics:
In the same pot, add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and cook for another 1 minute, stirring constantly.

Make the Soup Base:
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in the heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for 5-10 minutes to combine the flavors.

Add the Chicken and Greens:
Return the cooked chicken to the pot and add the chopped spinach or kale. Stir to combine, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until the greens are wilted.

Finish the Soup:
Stir in the lemon juice for a touch of brightness (optional). Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Serve:
Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy this rich, comforting soup!

 

Notes

For a thicker soup, you can blend part of the soup and then return it to the pot.

Feel free to substitute the baby spinach or kale with other leafy greens, or add in some other vegetables like carrots or zucchini.

This soup pairs well with crusty bread or a side salad for a complete meal.
