Description
A comforting and classic chicken noodle soup recipe made with simple ingredients, perfect for a cozy meal. Easy to follow for delicious results.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 3 carrots, peeled and chopped
- 3 celery stalks, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken is a great shortcut here)
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 6 ounces egg noodles
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- 1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables have softened, about 8-10 minutes.
- 2. Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 3. Pour in the chicken broth, add the cooked, shredded chicken, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Season with salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- 4. While the soup is simmering, cook the egg noodles according to the package directions in a separate pot of boiling salted water. Drain the noodles well.
- 5. Once the soup has simmered and the flavors have developed, taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
- 6. Ladle the hot soup into bowls. Add the cooked egg noodles to each bowl, or stir them directly into the pot if serving immediately.
- 7. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired.
Notes
Store cooled soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It’s best to store the noodles separately if not consumed immediately. Gently reheat on the stovetop over low heat, adding separately cooked noodles during the last few minutes of reheating.
