Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until softened, about 8-10 minutes.
2. Stir in minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
3. Pour in chicken broth and crushed tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, scraping up browned bits.
4. Add shredded cooked chicken to the pot. Stir.
5. Bring soup back to a simmer. Add broken lasagna noodles. Cook according to package directions until al dente, stirring frequently.
6. Reduce heat to low. Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Heat through gently without boiling.
7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Ladle into bowls, top with ricotta, fresh basil, and extra Parmesan cheese.

Notes

Store cooled soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop, adding a splash of broth if needed. For firmer noodles when reheating, cook them separately and add them to individual bowls. Freezing is possible but may alter the creamy texture; if freezing, consider removing noodles beforehand. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat thoroughly.
