Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe (2024)

I shred the rotisserie chicken as soon as I get home while it is warm. Toss the skin, juices, and carcass to simmer while prepping other ingredients. Usually crack big bones with a mallet and add tsp vinegar. Strain broth and decide what kind of soup today. Add appropriate vegetables and spices, Asian, Italian, Mexican. Shred breasts , add back when vegetables tender. Save dark meat for quesadillas and sandwiches. The 2 of us get at least 4 meals from a chicken $$$

Took the chicken carcass, along with chopped carrots, celery and onion, along with two cartons of Walmart no salt broth and let it simmer for an hour. No fuss, but a serious upgrade in the flavor.

Trader Joes has the best Organic Chicken broth that you can find. Not clear, watery, or salty. It is excellent.

I put the herb stems into a metal mesh tea ball, which made them easy to pluck out. This soup was delicious!

I kind of made this. Onions, then celery and carrot? No way, add them together and Sautee together. Add about 2-5 cloves of garlic when sofrito is soft for a minute. When you add broth, deglaze/scrape the bottom. I also added mushrooms - fun fact, you do NOT need oil to cook them. Throw them on a pan, dry, and they'll give you a crazy umami flavor. So I added those as well. I added some crushed red pepper since capsaicin helps people get well faster when they're sick. I also like spice :)

I boil the noodles separately and add with chicken at the end. Store leftovers separately as well. There’s nothing worse than leftover soup with gummy noodles that have been sitting in the broth.

I make chicken soup with a chicken. Real chicken soup is Easier than this recipe.

A pinch of red pepper flakes gives it a nice zip!

And this soup is made with a real chicken too.

Made a few modifications. Poached boneless skinless chicken thighs in chicken stock, strained it, and used the chicken stock in the soup. Cut fresh corn off the cob and added it to the soup along with the cooked chicken during the last few minutes of simmering. Add the cob to the soup along with the herbs, carrots, celery, and removed it at the same time as removing bay leaves, etc. Added a few tablespoons of fresh squeezed lemon juice for brightness before serving.

When using celery in beef or chicken soup, don’t forget the leaves. Chop them up and include them for additional flavor.

Homemade broth hack: Soup socks (can be found on Amazon). Stuff them with your broth ingredients and simply squeeze them out and discard when your done, life-changing.

Have been making this recipe with rotisserie chicken for years. I always add a good infusion of garlic along with all the veggies. Like another poster, I debone the chicken when I get home, save the meat for the soup, and cook the bones and skin in the chicken broth with the onions and garlic. Makes for a nice, deep flavor. I’m going to try the Trader Joe’s chicken stock. Thanks for that tip!

I pressure cooked a half raw chicken with lots onions, veg and herbs and 12 cups water for 45 minutes. Had my own stock and shredded chicken at the same time. Loads of flavor.

I don’t know, hard to swallow this shortcut.

Followed other’s directions - shredded the chicken while it was still hot. And let the bones boil in the stock.Added a bunch of garlic, a sprig of rosemary, and red pepper flakes.Keeping the noodles and dill in separate containers to be added right before eating to keep them fresher.Feel like it’s missing an element of citrus. Might add some lemon or lime juice.

I made this vegetarian using 1 can of chickpeas and 1 can of white beans in place of the chicken. It was a huge hit!!!

This was a quick meal for our Sunday lunch. It was easy and delicious!

"Can you double this next time, mommy?"Made this for the first time today because my family is fighting off a head cold and soup seemed like the perfect remedy. Absolutely delicious! I didn't have a rotisserie chicken so I just cooked what I had: 2lbs of chicken thighs in olive oil on the stovetop while the noodles were boiling. Also added a bit of turmeric for the immune support, color, and flavor benefit. Will definitely make again!

I had made the stock a few days earlier from rotisserie chicken carcasses, and this was the perfect recipe to turn that into delicious chicken soup. Made as directed,but sauteeed the onions, carrots and celery together with 2 smashed garlic cloves before adding the stock. I added wide egg noodles which I cooked separately and added to each bowl, then saved in a separate container from the rest of the soup.

Sauteed the carrots, onions and celery together. Added turmeric and used a good chicken bone broth. Added half a jalapeno on a whim... then I added some heavy cream and it was delicious! Went with a mix of dill and parsley and fresh thyme sprigs. Honestly, this is a great dish you can slightly modify and its done in record time. Exactly what I needed on a weeknight I was tired.

Have you tried roasting your chicken in an air fryer? My new fave. Cooked in 50 mins then stripped the meat and added bones to my pressure cooker with usual stock vegetables (leek, onion, garlic, carot, celery, seaweed, bay, thyme, parsley s+p). One bird plus the above made 3+ quarts of stock, plus 4 cups + meat. Easy, fast, and versatile top quality ingredients to make this version of chicken soup or however else you might like to use them.

Add a little fresh ginger and garlic- also finish off the soup with a couple squeezes of lemon!

Perfect, especially with homemade poultry bone broth and -- strongly suggested -- fresh or fresh frozen dill.

I added more carrots and celery. I didn't have parsley, so I skipped it. Added crushed garlic and extra pepper. Very little salt added because of the sodium in the stock. I added 4 cups of water to dilute the stock. It is delicious!

This was pretty easy and tasty. I sautéed the carrots and celery with the onion, then added garlic and some turmeric once that was all soft. Also added some lemon zest with the chopped parsley. Very nice.

So quick and easy! I made a big batch so I could freeze some - if freezing, withhold the noodles. When you're ready to reheat, simply cook the noodles in another pot and add together at the end.

Kinda blah. Bland and nothing exciting. NoodlesOverpowered it, hard to eat

I make a lot of soups and have made chicken noodle for years but after my daughter told me how great this recipe was I gave it a try. It was so easy that I wasn't thinking it would taste so good! It was amazing! I followed the recipe but chopped the carrots and celery and I used dilanti pasta. I used a lot more chicken stock than it called for and used more the next day when reheating. This is a keeper!!

Just loved it! I used 2 Chicken Breasts. All so good. Thanks for posting!
