Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup rotini pasta
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (for topping)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken breasts, diced onion, minced garlic, chicken broth, diced tomatoes (with juice), Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper into the slow cooker basin.
  2. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
  3. Remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker and place them on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the chicken. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
  4. Stir in the rotini pasta and increase the slow cooker setting to high if it was on low. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the pasta is tender.
  5. Reduce the heat setting to low or turn the slow cooker off. Stir in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese until the soup is creamy and the cheese is melted. Do not boil after adding the cream.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls. Top each serving with shredded mozzarella cheese and fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a lighter soup, substitute half-and-half for the heavy cream.
  • You can use pre-cooked, shredded chicken to reduce the cooking time significantly. Add it during the last hour of cooking.
  • Serve this **cheesy Italian soup** with crusty bread for dipping.
