A comforting and flavorful White Chicken Lasagna Soup that captures all the delicious flavors of lasagna in a hearty, easy-to-make soup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb ground chicken or cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (15 oz) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 6–8 lasagna noodles, broken into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese, plus more for serving
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. If using ground chicken, add it to the pot and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until no longer pink. Drain any excess fat. If using cooked shredded chicken, add it to the pot to warm.

2. Add chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

3. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

4. Pour in chicken broth and diced tomatoes. Stir in dried basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using). Season with salt and pepper.

5. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Add the broken lasagna noodles to the pot.

6. Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are al dente, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

7. Stir in heavy cream (or half-and-half) and 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until heated through and slightly thickened.

8. Remove from heat. Stir in 1/2 cup ricotta cheese until mostly dissolved, leaving some creamy pockets.

9. Ladle soup into bowls. Garnish each serving with an additional spoonful of ricotta cheese, a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, and fresh parsley. Serve hot.

Notes

For a vegetarian option, omit the chicken and use vegetable broth. You can add white beans or extra vegetables like spinach or zucchini.

Adjust red pepper flakes to your spice preference.

If you don’t have lasagna noodles, you can use other pasta shapes like rotini or penne.
