Homemade chicken noodle soup is the ultimate comfort food. When I have a sick kiddo at home I always make a batch of homemade Chicken Noodle Soup. It really makes a person feel better. The warm herb flavored broth and large chunks of chicken and carrots with the soft noodles melting in your mouth. Thinking about it makes we want a bowl right now. I love soup year round, my husband would not agree with me on that, but since I do the majority of cooking I get to pick what is for dinner! So ha, ha Teddy.
Chicken noodle soup is one of those dishes that takes you back to your childhood. For me specifically, sharing something homemade like chicken noodle soup, made with love by my Grandmother and shared with love with those you love! That’s the ultimate comfort food and medicine for anyone.
Bon Appetit,

Ingredients
- 2 cups chicken; shredded (pre-roasted or boiled chicken no skin and deboned)
- 2 quarts chicken stock
- 4 scallions; chopped finely
- 4 celery stalks; with greens sliced finely
- 3 carrots; sliced finely
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 8 ounces home-style egg noodles
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Parmesan cheese for garnish
Instructions
- In large pot melt butter add carrots, celery, and scallions medium low heat; sauté for 5 minutes. Then add chicken broth and herbs; turn up to medium high heat and cook until all vegetables are tender about 30 minutes, add chopped chicken and noodles cook another 20 minutes on medium heat, or until noodles are cooked. Remove rosemary sprig and garnish with parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For perfectly cooked noodles make sure to keep soup on medium boil. This will keep the noodle intact and keep them from sticking together. Buy a good egg noodle you can find homemade egg noodles in your freezer area at the grocery store. Also watch carefully do not over-cook the noodles, I turn them off before they are fully cooked because they have a tendency to soften in the broth.
