Chicken And Cavatelli Soup

Features:
    Cuisine:

    A hearty bowl of this chicken and Cavatelli pasta will fill your tummy and warm your soul. This dish is somewhere between a soup and a stew, the flavors reminiscent of my Dads chicken and dumplings I grew up eating. You may want to set your table with spoons AND forks!

    Nothing is better than a warm bowl of soup when the weather starts getting chilly. A few of my other favorite hearty soups are Chicken Soup with Spinach and Whole Wheat Acini Di Pepe, Stuffed Pepper Soup and Left Over Ham Bone Soup with Potatoes and Cabbage.,Cavatellis are Italian pastas, sometimes made with ricotta, sometimes without. The ones made with ricotta are sold frozen in some supermarkets or Italian specialty stores. I realize living in New York, finding Italian delis are like finding banks, we have them everywhere. If this is not common in your neighborhood, you can use orecchiette or noodles instead or even homemade spaetzle would be great.,There is a lot more liquid when you first make this, its more like a soup. But as it sits, it thickens, and the pasta absorbs the liquid. This photo was actually taken the next day when I reheated it for lunch. One bowl is very satisfying, even for my husband who has a hearty appetite.
