How To Make Crock Pot Creamy Chicken Parmesan Soup
Step 1: Assemble Ingredients in Crock Pot
Place chicken breasts in the bottom of the crock pot.
Add chicken broth, diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
Stir to combine, ensuring the chicken is submerged.

Step 3: Shred the Chicken & Add Creamy Ingredients
Remove the chicken from the crock pot and shred it using two forks.
Stir shredded chicken back into the crock pot.
Add heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Stir until the cheese melts into the broth.
Step 4: Add Pasta & Final Touches

Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with fresh basil or parsley.
