  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 4 chicken thighs or breasts diced
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 1/2 bunch of green onions chopped
  • 3 celery stalks diced
  • 2 carrots diced
  • 1 handful of spinach
  • 1 10 oz bag of cheese tortellini

Instructions

  • In a large pot, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside. Leave some bacon grease in the pot for flavor.
  • Add butter to the pot. Once melted, add chicken and season with onion powder, Cajun seasoning, poultry magic, garlic, and thyme. Cook until done, then remove and set aside.
  • Add onions, celery, and carrots to the pot. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, scraping up the browned bits at the bottom. If needed, add a little broth to help deglaze.
  • Stir in tomato paste and sundried tomatoes. Cook for a minute or two.
  • Sprinkle in the flour and stir, cooking another minute to form a roux.
  • Slowly whisk in the chicken broth, stirring constantly. Let the mixture simmer and thicken.
  • Stir in cream, seasonings, spinach, tortellini, chicken, and bacon. Cook for about 10 minutes or until the tortellini is tender.
