This homemade chicken noodle soup will hit the spot especially on a cold, Winter’s day.
When the weather is chilly, there’s nothing like sitting down to a nice bowl of homemade chicken noodle soup. This soup is easy to make using fresh ingredients. Once you go scratch, you never go back (I literally just thought of that right now ha!). Flu season is in full effect and it seems like everyone around us is catching a cold, flu or some kind of nasty stomach bug. This is a great soup to share with friends and I love dropping this off to friends when they’re out of commission. This recipe is all kinds of goodness because it’s packed full of nutrients and super simple to make. Jimmy and the kids love this soup and it’s always a hit in the Min’s abode. So without further ado….
Min’s Chicken Noodle Soup (serves 3-5 people)
- 1 box 32 oz chicken stock
- half of a shredded rotisserie chicken (little over 2 cups)
- 2.5 cups water
- 3/4 tablespoon of sea salt
- ground black pepper and extra salt to taste
- 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/2 cup chopped carrots, 1/2 cup frozen peas, 1/2 cup frozen corn
- 1/2 chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon butter
- box of small sized pasta
- crackers (optional)
I always double this recipe so I can share it with another family. It’s also great to freeze.
Chop up your veggies and gather all of your ingredients.
Don’t forget the frozen peas and corn. I love using the costco organic frozen veggie mix (contains peas, corns, carrots and green beans) but I used up the rest of the bag the other day.
Get a large pot and start by sauteing the veggies in the butter.
After sauteing for about 5 minutes under medium heat, add the chicken stock.
I like to use the organic one from Costco. Disregard the other container unless you are doubling the recipe like I do. I made homemade turkey broth from our Thanksgiving turkey carcass and added this to the soup. If you double the recipe, you can use homemade broth or just use another box of chicken stock.
Add your shredded chicken, water, salt and close the lid. Increase the heat and after it boils, reduce back to medium and let it cook for another 15-20 minutes. Taste the soup and add more salt if you desire. Add the ground black pepper. Boil pasta in another pot while the soup is cooking. I cook this separately because I don’t want the pasta to expand and get mushy.
Voila!! It’s super easy and delicious. I love the fact that you don’t have to add any other seasoning besides salt and pepper. Sometimes, the simplest ingredients taste the most delicious. You can also add more or less veggies if your heart desires. #getinmabelly
Enjoy!! If you make this, please let me know how it turned out!
