Recipe preparation for Creamy White Chicken Lasagna Soup

How to Make Creamy White Chicken Lasagna Soup

Start by preparing your ingredients: Chop your onion and garlic while your chicken breasts are ready to be cooked.

Sauté Aromatics: Heat a splash of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent and aromatic, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant.

Add Chicken and Broth: Toss in the chicken breasts and pour in the chicken broth. Bring everything to a gentle simmer and let it cook for about 15 minutes until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.

Shred Chicken & Add Noodles : Remove chicken from pot once cooked. Shred it using two forks before returning it to the pot along with broken lasagna noodles. Allow them to cook until al dente.

Create Creaminess: Stir in cream cheese until melted and combined, then add spinach (or kale) along with Italian seasoning. Let everything meld together for about 5 minutes on low heat.

Add Cheeses & Serve Up!: Finally, sprinkle shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese into the pot. Stir until melted and bubbly. Ladle into bowls and garnish with more cheese if desired!

The aroma alone will have everyone racing to the table! With each spoonful of this Creamy White Chicken Lasagna Soup, you’ll find yourself wrapped in warmth—both from the flavorful soup and from memories you’ll create around your dining table!
