Description

This hearty Crack Chicken Noodle Soup features tender chicken, vibrant vegetables, and slurpy noodles in a rich broth—perfect for cozy dinners or quick weeknight meals.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 fresh carrots, sliced thin
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 cups egg noodles

Instructions

  1. Chop the onion, slice the carrots and celery, and mince the garlic.
  2. In a large pot over medium heat, drizzle olive oil. Add chicken breasts and season with salt and pepper. Sear until golden brown (about 5 minutes per side).
  3. Stir in the diced onion, sliced carrots, chopped celery, and minced garlic. Cook until fragrant (about 2 minutes).
  4. Carefully add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook for about 20 minutes until chicken is fully cooked.
  5. Remove chicken from the pot once cooked (165°F). Shred using two forks.
  6. Return shredded chicken to the pot along with egg noodles. Simmer for an additional ten minutes until noodles are tender.
  7. Serve hot in bowls and enjoy!
