How to make White Chicken Lasagna Soup on the Stovetop
You can jump to the recipe card for full ingredients & instructions!
- Soften the onions and add the garlic and thyme.
- Stir in the flour.
- Add the broth and chicken, bring to a boil.
- Add the noodles and simmer.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken and shred.
- Add in the cream and cheeses and incorporate.
- Add the shredded chicken back to the pot with the spinach.
- Cook til the spinach has wilted.
This is best enjoyed soon after it’s made as the lasagna noodles will start to soften when it sits. Leftovers will keep well in the fridge for up to 4 days and can be reheated on the stovetop. You may want to add a little water or stock to the pot when you reheat it as the noodles will have absorbed liquid.
It’s best not to freeze this soup as there’s a lot of dairy in it. When dairy is frozen and thawed, the texture can change quite considerably and become grainy.
Yes of course, chicken thighs will work great in this recipe. Just be sure that they are fully cooked when you shred them as they will require a few extra minutes of cooking time.
Soups are a great way of using up veggies you have in your fridge. Bell peppers, mushrooms or carrots would all work great.
