directions
Step 1
Pour the broth into a heavy large saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Season the broth with pepper, to taste. Add the tortellini. Simmer over medium heat until al dente, about 7 minutes.
Step 2
Ladle the broth and tortellini into soup bowls. Top with parsley and Parmesan crisps and serve.
Step 3
Preheat oven to 400ºF.
Step 4
Pour a heaping tablespoon of Parmesan onto a silicone or parchment lined baking sheet and lightly pat down. A silicone baking sheet is highly recommended. Repeat with the remaining cheese, spacing the spoonfuls about a 1/2 inch apart.
Step 5
Bake for 3 to 5 minutes or until golden and crisp. Cool. Yield: 8 to 10 crisps.
