Slow Cooker Sicilian Chicken Soup

Category: Chicken, Soups, Healthy Recipes

 Ingredients List

  • 2 chicken breast
  • 8 cups water
  • 4 heaping tablespoons chicken broth base
  • 1 yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 4 celery ribs, diced
  • 3 carrots, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 – 14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes
  • ½ cup fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley
  • 5 garlic cloves, chopped, I use my garlic press
  • Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
  • ½ lb. ditalini pasta, cooked and set aside
  • 2 cups shredded asiago or parmesan cheese

 Directions

In slow cooker add all ingredients ((chicken breast, water, chicken base, onion, celery, carrots, and potatoes, diced tomatoes with their juices, garlic, parsley, 2 teaspoons salt and pepper)).

Cook on high for 6 hours, remove chicken breast and shred, place back in soup and bake another 2 hours.

At the end of 8 hours, use a potato masher, mash the soup around a few times, letting some of the potatoes get a little smashed. I don’t try too hard on this, I just mash 2-3 times and call it good. Add noodles to the slow cooker and season with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Serve with ¼ cup of sharp cheese on top, we like Asiago and parmesan both.
