Servings: 4
- ½ tsp olive oil
- 1 lb ground chicken
- ¼ cup yellow onion, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp salt *more to taste
- ½ ttsp dried basil
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- 2 Tbsp tomato paste
- 4-5 cup chicken broth, low sodium
- 1¾ cup frozen peas, carrots, green beans *see notes
- 8 oz bow tie pasta/farfalle, uncooked *about one cup
- 1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce *see notes
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
- 1 Tbsp cilantro, chopped for garnish
In a large soup pot or dutch oven, heat the olive oil up on medium/high heat. Add the ground chicken in and start to crumble to meat with a wooden spatula.
While the meat is starting to brown, add the onion, seasoning, Worcestershire sauce and tomato paste. Next add in the frozen veggies, pasta and broth. Bring to a simmer, cover the soup and let it simmer on medium/low for about 10-15 minutes or until the noodles are al dente.
If the noodles absorbed too much liquid, add an extra cup of broth or water will also work. Bring it to heat. Add one more cup more as needed until desired consistency. Please note, you may need a pinch more salt for the soup flavor if you use water.
When you are ready to serve the soup, add the parmesan in, stir well and serve hot in soup bowls.
Garnish creatively! Add extra parmesan, cracked black pepper and chopped cilantro or parsley to the top.
*ground turkey will also work great.
*any pasta shape will work well.
*any frozen blend of veggies you prefer will work.
*soy sauce will work as well.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can freeze these for up to 2 months.
