Why cook regular chicken soup when you can cook chicken soup with cheese tortellini!? It is fast and easy to make using pre-made tortellini and cooked chicken. Ingredients:
• 1 tablespoon olive oil |
• 1/2 cup diced onions |
• 4 cloves garlic, minced |
• 1 pound baby spinach |
• 3 large carrots |
• 3 ribs celery |
• 4 cups chicken broth |
• 1 large can diced peeled tomatoes |
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
• 1 pound pre-made cheese tortellini (from the market refrigerator case or freezer) |
• 2 cups cooked chicken, cut into 1-inch cubes (rotisserie chicken from the market or leftover homemade) |
Directions:
1. Heat a large stockpot over medium-low heat. Add olive oil and onions. Saute, stirring often, until onions are softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and spinach, and stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes, until spinach reduces.
2. Add chicken broth, tomatoes, and pepper to the pot. Bring to a low boil. Reduce heat, add tortellini, and simmer until cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in cooked chicken, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes, until chicken is warmed through.
3. Serve soup hot with crusty bread.
