  • ½ cup (50 g) sundried tomatoes, roughly chopped
  • A pinch of red chili flakes
  • 1 bay leaf
  • ¾ cup (125 g) ditalini pasta
  • 6 cups (1.5 l) chicken stock
  • ½ cup (125 g) low-fat cream cheese
  • ½ cup (125 ml) half and half, single cream
  • 2 cups (300 g) rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • cup (30 g) Parmesan, grated
  • 2 cups (60 g) fresh baby spinach, or kale

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven. Add the onion, carrot, and celery and cook for 5 minutes over medium heat until softened.
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 medium onion

  • Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute, then add the sundried tomatoes and red chili flakes and cook for a further minute.
    2 large garlic cloves
    ½ cup sundried tomatoes
    A pinch of red chili flakes
  • Add the bay leaf, ditalini pasta, and chicken stock. Bring everything to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the pasta is almost cooked through. This should take about 10-12 minutes.

    ⅓ cup Parmesan
    2 cups fresh baby spinach
  • Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper and serve hot, with extra freshly grated Parmesan on top if you like.
