Description

There is nothing quite like a bowl of homemade chicken noodle soup to warm the soul on a chilly evening. This recipe creates a clean, flavorful broth by slowly poaching chicken pieces with aromatic onions and bay leaves, allowing the natural juices to infuse the water. The result is a light yet satisfying soup that highlights the simplicity of high-quality ingredients. The addition of fresh carrots adds a touch of sweetness and color, while the tender egg noodles provide a comforting texture that soaks up the savory stock. Perfect for recovering from a cold or simply enjoying a cozy weeknight dinner, this dish is easy to prepare and deeply nourishing. Serve it hot with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and crusty bread for a complete, home-style meal that the whole family will love.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place the chicken pieces in a large stockpot and cover with the cold water.
  2. Bring the water to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to low to maintain a simmer.
  3. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface during the first 15 minutes of cooking.
  4. Add the sliced onion, carrot, bay leaf, and salt and pepper to the pot.
  5. Cover partially and simmer gently for 2 to 3 hours, until the chicken is very tender and falling off the bone.
  6. Remove the chicken from the broth and let it cool slightly enough to handle; discard the bay leaf and large vegetable chunks if desired.
  7. Shred the chicken meat, discarding bones and skin, and return the meat to the pot.
  8. Skim excess fat from the surface of the broth using a ladle or fat separator.
  9. Add the egg noodles to the simmering broth and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente.
  10. Stir in the chopped parsley and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper to taste before serving.
