Creamy Tuscan Chicken Soup

Creamy Tuscan Chicken Soup

My current favourite chicken soup! Creamy broth, juicy little bits of chicken, pasta shells and swirls of spinach with a sprinkle of sun dried tomato I use in place of croutons. Think – under the Tuscan Sun. Except – sweater weather food!

Let me just say upfront – I call this Tuscan but there’s nothing authentically Tuscan about it (as far as I know). To me, it has Tuscan vibes, so I gave it a cute name with the hopes to pique your interest. Just in case my photo and writing doesn’t do the job well enough to convince you that you really need to try this creamy chicken soup!

Ingredients:
  • 500 g/1 lb chicken thighs , skinless boneless
  • 1/2 tsp each salt and pepper

Soup
  • 30g / 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 onion , finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves , minced
  • 2 large celery stems , finely sliced (sub 2 carrots)

  • 4 cups chicken stock/broth , low sodium
