Preparation
- Drain oil from the sun dried tomato jar into a large dutch oven or heavy-bottom pot over medium heat. Once oil is hot, add onion. After 2 minutes add garlic and cook for 3 more minutes, stirring often.
- Roughly chop the drained sun-dried tomatoes and add them to the dutch oven along with the tomato paste. Continuously stir and cook for 1-2 minutes until paste darkens in color.
- Slowly pour in chicken broth while stirring, then season with salt, Italian seasoning, basil, onion powder, and red pepper flakes. Bring soup to a boil, then simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Add pasta and continue simmering for 10-12 minutes or until pasta is al dente.
- Bring heat down to low and add heavy cream, spinach, chicken, and cream cheese. Mix to combine and cook for 5 additional minutes.
- Sprinkle with parmesan and serve hot.
