Creamy Tuscan Chicken Soup

---

Instructions:

1. Cook the Chicken
   • In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat.
   • Add chicken breasts and cook until golden on both sides (about 4–5 min per side). Remove and set aside.
2. Sauté Aromatics
   • In the same pot, add onion and cook until softened. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
3. Build the Soup Base
   • Pour in chicken broth, heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper.
   • Return chicken to the pot, reduce heat, and simmer gently for 20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
4. Shred Chicken & Finish
   • Remove chicken, shred it using two forks, and return to the soup.
   • Stir in spinach and Parmesan cheese until wilted and creamy.
5. Serve
   • Ladle into bowls, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and enjoy with warm crusty bread.
