Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

4. Pour in the tomato sauce and chicken broth, followed by the dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
5. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
6. Return the cooked chicken to the pot, add the cooked pasta, and stir well to combine.
7. Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 5 minutes so that everything is heated through.
8. Ladle the soup into bowls and generously top with shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese.
9. Finish off with a garnish of fresh basil leaves before serving.
