Cooking Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts on both sides with your chosen seasoning. In a large soup pot, heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for about 4 minutes per side until fully cooked. Remove chicken and set aside.
- Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in the same pot. Add the diced onion, carrot, and celery. Lightly season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and become aromatic.
- Sauté minced garlic for 1 minute until fragrant. Sprinkle flour over the vegetables, stirring continuously to coat evenly. Cook the roux for 2 minutes to eliminate any raw flour flavor.
- Whisk in the chicken broth gradually, about 375 milliliters at a time. Once incorporated, pour in the heavy cream. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and herbes de Provence.
- Bring the soup to a gentle boil. Add chopped broccoli and broken lasagna noodles. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring often to prevent the pasta from sticking, until the noodles are al dente.
- Stir in grated Parmesan cheese until fully melted and the soup is smooth. Chop the reserved chicken into bite-sized pieces and return to the pot. Mix thoroughly and season with additional salt and pepper as desired.
- Ladle the hot soup into bowls and serve immediately.
