Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare ingredients by chopping the onion, mincing the garlic, and dicing the sun-dried tomatoes. Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and chili flakes for 1-2 minutes.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth, then add chicken and sun-dried tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 12-15 minutes until chicken is fully cooked.
  4. In a separate pot, cook pasta in boiling salted water according to package instructions, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  5. Whisk together half-and-half and cornstarch, then gradually add to the soup while stirring. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until thickened.
  6. Shred the cooked chicken, return to the pot along with pasta and spinach. Stir and cook for 2-3 minutes until spinach is wilted.
  7. Serve soup in bowls topped with dollops of ricotta, grated Parmesan, and mozzarella.
