This soup is quick and easy and all ingredients can be kept in the freezer for a last minute dinner option.
My 8 year-old loves to help make this soup, and how yummy it turns out! The broth is so light and delicious!
1. Stir the cornstarch and water in a small cup until smooth. Set the mixture aside.
*If using fresh or thawed chicken, skip Step 2.
2. Boil frozen chicken breasts in pot on stove until defrosted and mostly cooked through.
3. Strain and chop chicken into cubes, add to 1 Tbspn vegetable oil in large pot over Medium-High heat. Cook chicken until golden brown, stirring often. Remove chicken and set aside.
4. Add onion and celery to 1 Tbspn vegetable oil in pot. Cook over Medium-high heat for 2 mins. Add carrots and green beans and cook vegetables until tender-crisp.
5. Stir in chicken broth. Heat to a boil. Add the parsley and tortellini. Sprinkle Parmesan Herb seasonings and stir. Cook for 10 minutes until the tortellini is tender. Be careful not to overcook as pasta will fall apart.
6. Return chicken to pot and heat through.
7. Add cornstarch mixture and stir into soup. Cook and stir until the mixture boils and thickens slightly.
It's quick, delicious and light!
