Mouthwatering Rotisserie Chicken Tortellini Soup

I love cheese tortellini! I mean…love, love, love! I could literally eat it with a little melted butter and be a happy camper. It’s all about taking that first bite into the al dente pasta and getting the flavor of that little nugget of cheese for me. Yuummmmy. It’s pure heaven in my book. If you love cheese tortellini like I do then you will LOVE this Chicken Tortellini Soup. I make it even easier by using a rotisserie chicken.

Mouthwatering Chicken Tortellini Soup using a rotisserie chicken.

Let me just tell you, when I made this Chicken Tortellini Soup it was 40 degrees and windy. I really wanted something to warm up my tummy and feed my soul. It’s now a couple of days later (keep in mind, it’s still February) and I’m writing this post, while I’m watching the kids. I’m watching the kids play kickball in the backyard while wearing shorts. Did I mention it’s still February?! LOL! In Arkansas, we always tell folks to give it a minute and the weather will change. When it gets cold again (5 mins from now) this soup is a must try.

Mouthwatering Rotisserie Chicken Tortellini Soup will warm your tummy and warm your soul.

Y’all, it’s so easy and so delicious! It will make your mouth water for more. Thank goodness for leftovers!

Lacie’s Easy Peasy Pleasy Tips

  • You CAN cook the tortellini right in the soup if you are serving a big crowd.
  • If you plan on having soup leftovers, I would recommend cooking the tortellini separate. You can heat up your soup the next day and once warm, add in your cooked tortellini. This way the tortellini never gets overcooked and won’t turn into mush.
  • Fresh pasta cooks faster than dried pasta.

I so hope y’all give this recipe a try. I am in love with the flavors of this soup and the nice bit of cheese the tortellini adds as a little surprise.

  1. It really is mouthwatering! I always only make boring tortellinis with a sauce, they’re good too, but this looks so delicious and really like a fun and tasty meal! Perfect for a cold day! Thanks so much for sharing at Sweet Inspiration, have a lovely weekend!

    I made this for supper tonight and it was really good! I must have had a bigger rotisserie chicken because there was a lot of it. I doubled the recipe but just used the one rotisserie chicken. I have a lot of soup left and not that many tortellini. (I think my husband loaded up on those, lol.) I’ll probably make some kind of pasta to put in with the rest of the soup. Thanks for the recipe!

      Hey Kristi!!! I’m glad you liked the soup. I have found that every store has a different size rotisserie chicken. Sam’s club chicken is like double the size of Walmart. Crazy right?! Did you double the amount of tortellini too? Your bunch sounds like mine and puts tons of tortellini in the bowl. Lol!
