Ingredients

  • 1 (12 ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini

  • ¼ cup butter

  • ½ large onion, finely chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • ½ teaspoon paprika

  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1 pinch dried marjoram

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • ⅓ cup all-purpose flour

  • 4 cups chicken stock

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken

  • 2 cups fresh spinach

  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream

  • 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini are tender yet firm to the bite, about 9 minutes. Drain.

  2. Melt butter in a pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook and stir until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Add paprika, cumin, marjoram, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to low. Stir flour into the pot. Whisk in chicken stock slowly until fully blended.

  3. Bring soup to a boil, stirring frequently until thickened. Add tortellini, chicken, spinach, and heavy cream; stir until heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
