How To Make The Best Chicken Noodle Soup – Step By Step

What Are The Best Noodles For Noodle Soup?
I used egg noodles. The great thing about this soup is that any kind of noodles will work! Popular types of noodles for soup are:
- Farfalle pasta
- Elbow macaroni
- Rotini
How To Store The Best Chicken Noodle Soup
Store your soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days, depending on the freshness of the chicken you used.
Allow the soup to cool completely and store it in a freezer safe container for 2-3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge, or over medium heat on the stove. If using store bought noodles undercook the noodles before freezing the soup, to avoid them getting soggy upon reheating.


Add Ins For This Soup
This recipe is easy to customize: add more or less vegetables depending on your preference. Popular additions include corn, peas, or seasonal vegetables.
Feel free to add in fresh or dried herbs, such as thyme, basil, oregano or rosemary to the liquid while the chicken is simmering.
Also, a good amount of black cracked pepper or crushed red chili flakes to kick up the spice if you like heat.
Of course, it would be very appropriate to involve some fresh bread rolls or garlic bread to mop up the broth afterwards.

Top Tips For The Best Chicken Noodle Soup
- Adjust the broth level of your soup by adding more water or chicken broth.
- Adjust the seasonings of your soup to taste, adding more seasonings at the end if desired.
- You can also use rotisserie chicken instead of cooking and shredding chicken breasts before starting the recipe.
Packed with Flavor
Chicken Bouillon powder is an optional add in and go in along with your broth providing a lot of flavor. If you don’t have access to bouillon, use regular stock powder or omit!
