Recipe Variations:

Cooked Chicken – We used frozen chicken breast for this recipe, but you can easily use boneless chicken thighs or chicken tender. If you have leftover rotisserie chicken, you can add that to the soup as well.
Double the Recipe – This recipe is perfect for feeding a crowd. Double the ingredients for a crowd pleasing soup. Add a side of salad and breadsticks and everyone will come back for more.
Seasoning – We used Italian Seasoning blend for this recipe. You can easily use fresh herbs if you prefer or other types of seasoning.
Change the Pasta – We usually cook this dish with a traditional pasta. But if you prefer to use gluten free pasta or whole wheat pasta instead, I would cook separately. This will ensure that the pasta gets cooked and is not mushy.
Add in Vegetables – Add in bell peppers, onions, or spinach to add flavor to this delicious soup.
Spicy – Add in Red Pepper Flakes to this soup to add a little kick to the soup.

Can this soup be made on the Stove Top?

Yes, this soup can definitely be made in your dutch oven or in a large pot on the stove. Place the ingredients in the large pot and cook until chicken is done.

Add in the pasta and the heavy cream once the chicken is cooked and shredded. Continue cooking for about 20 minutes and then serve with your favorite topping.

I like to make it on the stove top as well if I am going to be home. It cooks perfectly on the stove and it always smells delicious.

How to Store Leftovers:

This Crock Pot Chicken Parmesan Soup is delicious leftover. We like to place in individual air tight containers for an easy way to have lunch the next day. Place containers in the refrigerator and they will stay good for about 3 to 4 days.

This soup heats well on the stove or in a microwave. The soup is delicious the next day as the ingredients really marinate together. Add a side of garlic bread and your lunch is complete.

Can I Freeze Chicken Parmesan Soup?

Freezing soup that has pasta and cream as their base can be challenging. The texture of the pasta can change when thawing and the cream broth can separate. If you are planning on freezing this recipe, you can definitely freezing after you make it.

But I would recommend keeping the pasta and cream broth separate and just freezing the soup contents. Then when you are ready to serve again, add in the tortellini. Then mix in the heavy cream as the recipe card indicates.

If frozen properly, this soup will last about 2 months in the freezer. Thaw soup in the refrigerator overnight and then reheat on the stovetop.
