Instructions

1
Dice the onion and finely chop the broccoli. Shred the meat from the rotisserie chicken breasts and set aside.
2
In a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and butter. Once melted, add the garlic paste and diced onion.
3
Sauté the onion until it becomes fragrant and translucent.
4
Stir in the all-purpose flour and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
5
Slowly pour in the chicken broth while stirring to break up any lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
6
Once simmering, add the shredded carrots and cook for about 5 minutes.
7
Stir in the shredded chicken, followed by the garlic powder, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and onion powder.
8
Add the finely chopped broccoli and the broken lasagna noodles to the pot. Stir well to combine.
9
Pour in the heavy cream and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the lasagna noodles are tender.
10
Once the noodles are cooked, reduce the heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it's completely melted and the soup is creamy.
11
Serve hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.

Tips & Notes

Pro tips

Make a smooth roux: whisk the flour into melted butter off heat for 1 minute before adding broth to prevent lumps.
Add lasagna noodles in the last 10–12 minutes so they soften without becoming mushy; stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste and adjust cheddar cheese at the end rather than during cooking; it can overpower other flavors if added too early.
Finely chop broccoli florets so they cook evenly in about 8–10 minutes and distribute throughout the soup.

Substitutions

All-purpose flour → cornstarch (use 1.5 tsp; mix with cold water first)
Low-sodium chicken broth → vegetable broth (flavor will be slightly lighter)
Rotisserie chicken → 2 cups shredded cooked chicken thighs (richer, more forgiving)
White onion → yellow or sweet onion (mild sweetness is acceptable)

Storage & make-ahead

Refrigerate cooled soup in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat gently on the stovetop and thin with broth if needed.

Common Questions

Can I use fresh broccoli instead of frozen?

Yes. Chop fresh broccoli florets finely to match the recipe's texture and cooking time. Use the same 2-cup measurement.

How do I prevent the soup from being too thick?

The roux (flour + butter) thickens the broth. If it becomes too thick after adding lasagna noodles, stir in extra chicken broth 1/4 cup at a time until you reach desired consistency.

Can I make this ahead?

Yes. Cool and refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Reheat on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Add broth if it has thickened.
