Hearty, creamy, delicious, Chicken Noodle Soup. It’s so good you’ll keep it on your dinner rotation year round! This recipe is so creamy, and has a perfect combination of textures to make this soup absolutely delicious ! You can pair it with sweet corn bread muffins, our fresh homemade artisan bread, or dinner rolls to make it a complete meal.
To make the process of cooking easier we, use already cooked rotisserie chicken! The meat off the rotisserie chicken is cooked perfectly, and adds a delicious roasted flavor to the soup. We like to get our rotisserie chicken from Costco. As soon as we get them home, we work on taking all the meat off the bones and store it in a ziploc bag. You can use half for the soup and save the other half of the meat to add to another meal. It makes weeknight meals a breeze.
You can also substitute the rotisserie chicken for fresh or frozen chicken. Be sure to slice it into cubes, sprinkle with salt/pepper, and cook on both sides about 3-4 minutes per side, until the internal temperature hits 165°.
The ingredients list is simple and hearty, which I love:
2 Tbs Butter
1/2-1 cup Carrots *thinly sliced
1 tsp Onion Powder
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1-2 Celery Stalks *thinly sliced
4 cups Chicken Broth
1-2 cups Rotisserie Chicken *chopped
2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
3-4 cups Water
1 Tbs Chicken Bouillion
1/2 tsp Thyme
1/2 bag Egg Noodles
1/2-3/4 cups Heavy Cream *substitue half and half
Chicken is a great source of protein that helps support our immune system. This Chicken Noodle Soup also contains good vitamins and minerals, like B vitamins, which boost immunity and help regulate our digestion. Another great reason to add this soup to your dinner menu!
