About Chickarina

Chickarina soup is a hearty Italian-American dish, combining tender chicken, flavorful broth, small savory meatballs, and vegetables like carrots, celery, and parsley. Small pasta pearls, often referred to as acini di pepe, give it added texture and substance. Originating as a comforting homestyle soup, Chickarina balances protein from chicken and meatballs with essential vitamins from its vegetables. The broth is typically low in calories and contains hydrating properties, making it a popular choice during colder months or when under the weather. However, depending on preparation, sodium levels in canned or pre-packaged versions can be high, so homemade options may be preferable for those monitoring salt intake. Rich in protein and essential nutrients, Chickarina is both a satisfying and nourishing meal, ideal for both lunch and dinner.
