Cook the tortellini according to package directions.

In a dutch oven or large pot, cook the onion in the butter and a drizzle of olive oil until tender. Whisk in the flour. Add in the chicken stock and whisk. Add in the heavy cream and garlic and whisk. Cook until it starts to bubble. Add in the tomatoes, salt, pepper, and chili flakes. Cook until heated through.
