Chicken Lasagna Soup

This soup recipe is adapted from my Lasagna Soup. But, in this version, I used rotisserie chicken instead of ground beef, spinach in place of tomatoes, and chicken broth to replace the beef broth. They are both hearty soups that can be eaten as a main dish. Not to mention, it is beyond delicious!

Chicken Lasagna Soup Ingredients

Rotisserie Chicken: It’s easy to go out and buy a rotisserie chicken, shred it, and use it in this soup. You can also check if there is chicken already shredded and packaged at your local deli. But, you could also make your own rotisserie chicken here.

Mafalda Noodles: You can break apart lasagna noodles to use in this recipe, but you may miss out on the lovely frills on the sides. So, if you can find them, use Mafalda noodles! It is a ribbon-shaped pasta that is flat and wide with wavy edges on the sides.

Spinach: I used frozen baby spinach that had been thawed. This is the easy way to go. If you do use fresh spinach, you would have to cook it down before chopping it and adding it to the soup.

How to Make Chicken Lasagna Soup

The nice thing about this recipe is that it is all made in one big pot! I used a Dutch oven and started by heating up and melting the oil and butter over medium-high heat. Next, add the chopped onion and cook it for a few minutes. Then, add the garlic to cook for one additional minute.

After the onion and garlic have cooked, add the flour and whisk it to form a paste. Stir it constantly for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown. Add the chicken, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Pour in the chicken broth and let this simmer on medium-low heat for about 10 minutes.

Once simmered, add the noodles and continue to let the soup simmer another 6-8 minutes, or until the noodles are cooked al dente. Finally, add the spinach, half-and-half, and both kinds of cheese. Stir until everything is combined. Serve immediately.

Can I Make this in a Slow Cooker?

Yes, you could definitely get this made in a slow cooker. Follow the first few steps in a skillet. Heat the oil and butter and cook the onions and garlic. Next, form the paste with the flour. Add those ingredients to the slow cooker. Then, add the remaining ingredients (except for the pasta) and cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 2-3 hours.

Thirty minutes before you are ready to serve, add in your noodles. Test the noodles at 15 minutes to see if it is done al dente. I have let them sit for 30 minutes without issue, but that may not be the case if you use a different style noodle or a noodle that is not good quality.

Serve the soup with some homemade garlic breadsticks and a side of Garlic Parmesan Roasted Asparagus for a completely satisfying meal!
