CHICKEN FLORENTINE SOUP



Chicken Florentine Soup image

Soup is what happens when I have leftovers in the house and it's time to clear out the veggie drawer. I got the inspiration while lunching at the Palm Tree Grille in Mount Dora when attending the annual Plant and Garden Sale. I didn't have their soup but it was on special. This will be great for lunches during the week.

CHICKEN TORTELLINI FLORENTINE SOUP



Chicken Tortellini Florentine Soup image

I needed something for a girl's night. I wanted something that would taste like I slaved over it but in reality was simple and didn't take much time. This recipe went beyond my expectations. I found the recipe on BHG and only had to tweak a couple of things.

Provided by tanyapruitt

Categories     Chicken

Time 30m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

18 ounces cheese tortellini (fresh or frozen)
56 ounces chicken broth
20 ounces alfredo sauce
4 cups rotisserie-cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup sun-dried tomato packed in oil, drained
6 cups fresh Baby Spinach, lightly packed
2 ounces parmesan cheese (shaved or shredded)
heavy cream

Steps:

  • In a large stockpot cook the tortellini according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  • In the same pan combine the broth and Alfredo sauce. You can use store bought broth and Alfredo sauce or homemade. Either way it will turn out great. Stir in the chicken and tomato strips. Heat to boiling and then reduce the heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
  • Add the cooked tortellini and spinach. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes to heat through and wilt the spinach.Even after making this I felt that it needed just a little more liquid. So as not to lose the creamy texture I added heavy cream until I got the consistency I was looking for. Milk or broth would also work.
  • Sprinkle each serving with Parmesan cheese and serve with warm garlic bread.

Tips:

  • To enhance the flavor of the soup, use high-quality chicken stock or broth. Alternatively, you can make your own stock using chicken bones, vegetables, and herbs.
  • For a richer soup, use heavy cream instead of milk. You can also add a tablespoon of butter or olive oil to the soup before serving.
  • If you don't have fresh spinach, you can use frozen spinach instead. Just thaw it before adding it to the soup.
  • To make the soup more filling, add some cooked rice or pasta. You can also add some chopped vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or zucchini.
  • Serve the soup hot, garnished with fresh parsley or chives.

Conclusion:

Chicken Florentine soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it is sure to please the whole family. With its creamy texture, savory chicken, and vibrant spinach, this soup is a delight for the senses.
