Ingredients

Instructions 

  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced celery to the pot. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add the boneless chicken breast, dried thyme, dried basil, salt, and pepper.
  • Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove the chicken from the pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded chicken back to the pot.
  • Add the cheese tortellini and fresh spinach to the soup. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the tortellini is cooked according to package instructions.
  • Stir in the lemon juice and adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Serve hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.

You can substitute the chicken with cooked rotisserie chicken for a quicker option.
