I won't pretend to be the best cook in town, ever. I am pretty terrible. There are about five recipes that I can make really well. They totally taste like they come from a restaurant, and they usually takes under a half hour to make. I do love that about those five recipes. Whenever I try something new, it usually turns out pretty bad. Like don't feed it to the dog bad.
When I tried this chicken noodle soup recipe, I didn't have any grand illusions that it would turn out well. I was really just hoping that it was edible... especially considering how simple the ingredients are. Well, it was beyond edible!! It was seriously "the best chicken noodle soup that I have ever had" good and beyond easy.
As a teacher I need recipes that are fast, cheap, and create as few dishes as possible. This one fits the bill without sacrificing anything. It will be going into the rotation immediately.
"The Easiest & Most Amazing Chicken Noodle Soup Ever" Recipe
Ingredients
1 lb. Chicken Breast
Carrots
1 medium white onion
3-6 cups of chicken broth
3 chicken bullion cubes
Salt & pepper, as desired
3-6 cups of water
Wide egg noodles
Dash of olive oil
Parsley, if desired
Steps
1. Chop the carrots. I usually cut enough to fill the bottom of my crockpot.
2. Chop the entire onion. Make sure the pieces are a little bigger than if you were to dice it. (And yes, you want to use the entire onion.)
3. Throw the chicken, bullion cubes, dash of olive oil, and salt & pepper into the crockpot on top of the vegetables.
4. Now this will be up to how much you like broth with your soup. I like a lot, so this is how I do it. Add six cups of chicken broth and four cups of water.
5. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4 hours.
6. Ten minutes before serving, pull out the chicken and shred.
7. Add the shredded chicken & egg noodles for about ten minutes.
Sprinkle parsley if you want and enjoy! Beyond delightful.
The first time I made this was a chilly, cooped up snow day like today and all day this soup just smelled sooo good! Another bonus to this recipe is that it makes plenty so you can enjoy your leftovers the next day as well.
