This healthy, Italian-inspired chicken soup recipe is loaded with fiber-rich vegetables and beans and gets an extra boost of flavor from a swirl of pesto at the end. To get a homemade stock flavor using store-bought broth, we simmer bone-in chicken breasts in the broth before adding the rest of the soup ingredients.
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried
1 tablespoon chopped fresh marjoram or 1 teaspoon dried
8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 pounds bone-in chicken breasts, skin removed
3 cups sliced fennel
3 cups broccolini (1-inch pieces; about 1 bunch)
2 cups chopped tomatoes
1 15-ounce can cannellini beans, rinsed
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon ground pepper
¼ cup prepared pesto
