Method
- Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer.
- Stir in the cooked chicken, evaporated milk, softened cream cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Whisk until the cream cheese is fully melted and the soup is smooth.
- Add the broken lasagna noodle pieces to the soup. Simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are tender, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
Notes
You can use leftover cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken for this recipe. If you prefer a thicker soup, you can add a little more cream cheese or reduce the amount of chicken broth.
