Marry Me Chicken Soup is a rich, creamy, and comforting dish inspired by the viral Marry Me Chicken recipe. Loaded with sun-dried tomatoes, parmesan, tender chicken, and herbs, it’s perfect for cozy nights or romantic dinners.

Ingredients

  • Chicken breast or thighs – provides tender protein and hearty flavor
  • Olive oil & butter – create a flavorful base for sautéing
  • Onion & garlic – build aromatic depth for the soup
  • Chicken broth – forms the savory, comforting liquid base
  • Sun-dried tomatoes – add tangy sweetness and rich flavor
  • Heavy cream – brings the soup a velvety, luxurious texture
  • Parmesan cheese – adds salty, umami depth and creaminess
  • Italian seasoning – infuses the broth with classic Tuscan herbs
  • Crushed red pepper – introduces a hint of spice
  • Baby spinach – provides freshness, color, and nutrients
  • Salt and pepper – balance and enhance all the flavors

Instructions

  1. Sauté diced onion and garlic in olive oil and butter until fragrant.
  2. Add diced chicken and cook until lightly browned.
  3. Stir in sun-dried tomatoes and Italian seasoning, toasting briefly.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer to cook the chicken through.
  5. Lower heat and add heavy cream, stirring gently to blend.
  6. Mix in parmesan cheese and stir until fully melted and slightly thickened.
  7. Add baby spinach and let it wilt in the hot soup.
  8. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste.
  9. Let chill for 10 minutes before serving to set and enhance the flavors.

Notes

  • Use freshly grated parmesan for best melting and flavor.
  • Sun-dried tomatoes are essential for signature flavor—avoid skipping.
  • Add a splash of white wine after sautéing chicken for extra depth.
  • Make it vegetarian by replacing chicken with cannellini beans.
  • Freeze before adding cream and cheese if preparing ahead.
