This hearty soup layers tender shredded chicken, sweet-tart sun-dried tomatoes, and aromatic vegetables into a rich tomato broth finished with a touch of cream. It comes together in a single pot with minimal cleanup, making it suited for weeknight dinners or a comforting lunch. The sun-dried tomatoes add concentrated depth that balances the broth's acidity.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts

  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped, for garnish
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese, for garnish

Method

  1. Heat the olive oil in a 6-quart stock pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery, and cook until softened, about 6 minutes.

  2. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, then add the chicken breasts, crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, basil, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

  4. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the chicken is cooked through and tender, about 25 minutes.

  5. Remove the chicken breasts to a cutting board and shred into bite-sized pieces using two forks.

  6. Return the shredded chicken to the pot and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer uncovered until heated through, about 5 minutes.

  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.

  8. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil and grated parmesan cheese before serving.
