Comforting Chicken Noodle Soup

Comforting Chicken Noodle Soup

This classic soup really is the absolute best comfort food. If you’ve made our Ultimate Chicken Broth, you already have the essential building blocks on hand — great stock and poached chicken. Cooking the noodles separately keeps your broth cleaner-tasting (and the pasta won’t absorb all the liquid you want in your soup), though you can cook the noodles straight in the broth if you prefer.

Ingredients


Serves 46

  • 2 cups (3 oz./85 g) medium egg noodles
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1⁄2 cup chopped leek
  • 2 cups diced carrot
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 8 cups Ultimate Chicken Stock
  • 3 cups diced or shredded cooked chicken
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley

Directions

Cook Noodles

  1. Bring medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add noodles and cook for 8 minutes, or until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Make Soup

  1. Heat olive oil in large pot over medium-low heat. Add onion and leek and sauté for 5 minutes, or until onions are translucent.
  2. Add carrots and celery and sauté for 4 more minutes, or until slightly softened. Add stock, turn heat to high, and bring to a boil.
  3. Turn heat down to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until vegetables are cooked through.
  4. Add cooked noodles and chicken and simmer for 2 minutes to bring flavors together.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with chopped parsley just before serving.
