Main Ingredients

1 lbs Boneless Chicken Breasts Substitute with rotisserie chicken for quicker prep.
4 cloves Minced Garlic Fresh is best, but jarred works too.
28 oz Crushed Tomatoes Use canned for convenience.
15 oz Tomato Sauce Enhances the overall tomato flavor.
1 tsp Salt Adjust according to taste.
1 tsp Ground Black Pepper Use freshly ground for better taste.
2 tsp Italian Seasoning Making your own adds a personal touch.
4 cups Chicken Broth Substitute with vegetable broth for a vegetarian option.
1 cup Parmesan Cheese Freshly shaved is preferred.
1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream Half-and-half works for a lighter alternative.
2 cups Rotini Pasta Any preferred shape can be used.
1 cup Breadcrumbs Opt for gluten-free breadcrumbs if needed.
2 tbsp Butter Used to sauté breadcrumbs.
1 cup Shredded Mozzarella Blend with gouda for a delightful twist.

Method

Preparation

Place the boneless chicken breasts at the bottom of your crockpot.
Add minced garlic, crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, salt, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and chicken broth into the crockpot.
Cover and cook on low for about 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through.
Remove the chicken and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the crockpot.
Stir in the heavy whipping cream and rotini pasta, ensuring the pasta is well submerged.
Cook on high for an additional 30 minutes, or until the pasta is tender.

Serving

While the soup cooks, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add breadcrumbs and toast until golden brown. Set aside.
Serve the soup in bowls, topping each with shredded mozzarella and toasted breadcrumbs for added crunch.

Notes

For extra flavor, toss in some chopped fresh basil or parsley right before serving. If you like it cheesy, feel free to add more mozzarella and Parmesan! Adjust the thickness of the soup by adding more or less broth based on your preference. Experiment with different pastas or even omit them for a low-carb version.
