Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup with Chicken
This Slow Cooker Lasagna Soup with Chicken recipe is an easy dump-and-go crockpot meal that the whole family will love. It includes an herby tomato broth, tender chicken, earthy vegetables, and chewy pasta - plus plenty of Parmesan and melty, gooey mozzarella!
Ingredients
- 4 cups chicken broth low-sodium
- 2 cups marinara sauce good quality
- 1 can fire-roasted tomatoes 15 ounces
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning dried
- 1 teaspoon thyme fresh leaves
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt Morton brand
- ½ teaspoon black pepper cracked
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes more or less to taste
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 pound chicken breast cut into 3/4” pieces
- 1 onion diced, large, sweet yellow
- 2 garlic minced, large cloves
- 8 ounces mushroom halved, fresh
- 8 ounces pasta such as campanelle or mafalda, small, dried
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 ounces mozzarella cheese drained, pearls
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
- basil for garnish, fresh
Instructions
- Add the chicken stock, marinara sauce, fire-roasted tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, Italian seasoning, thyme, salt, pepper, paprika, and red pepper flakes to a 4-quart (or larger) slow cooker and stir to combine.
- Add the chicken, onion, garlic, and mushrooms, and stir to combine again.
- Cook on high for 2 hours (or low for 4 hours), or until the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F and is fork tender.
- While the soup is cooking, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta to al dente according to the package directions.
- Drain the pasta and drizzle it with the olive oil, then fold gently a few times to distribute the olive oil.
- To serve the soup, add ½ cup of cooked pasta to each individual serving bowl and ladle the soup over the noodles. Garnish with mozzarella pearls, grated parmesan, and fresh basil leaves. (Or serve with the "cheesy yum" from my original Lasagna Soup recipe!) Enjoy immediately.
