Ultimate Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe

This slow cooker chicken noodle soup recipe is satisfying enough to serve as a complete meal with a side of fresh bread or garlic bread and enjoy this cozy meal in a bowl.

We often think of chicken noodle soup as a cold weather soup for a cold winter day, or to soothe a sore throat but it’s really delicious any time of year!

The great thing about a crock pot is that it doesn’t heat up the kitchen on a hot summer day!

Why You’ll Love this Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe

• incredible easy to make and delicious as the flavors mellow in the slow cooker.
• hearty and satisfying
• great make-ahead and just as delicious the next day.

Ingredients for Chicken Noodle Soup

• chicken breasts – boneless skinless chicken thighs would also work, as well as rotisserie chicken (added near the end of cooking for rotisserie)
• carrots
• yellow onion – you could also use sweet onion.
• celery ribs
• garlic cloves, minced – fresh garlic is best in this soup.
• bay leaves
• fresh rosemary – if you don’t have access to the fresh herbs, add in 2 teaspoons of Italian seasoning instead.
• dried thyme
• chicken broth
• Salt & Black Pepper
• extra-wide egg noodles
• fresh parsley

STEP ONE – Spray the bottom of a 7 quart (or larger) slow cooker with cooking spray.

STEP TWO – Lay the chicken breasts in the bottom, along with the sliced carrots, diced onions, sliced celery, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary and bay leaves.

Sometimes, if I have a bit of extra time, I saute the celery and onions in a bit of olive oil for five minutes first.

STEP THREE: Pour the chicken broth over the top.  Cover and cook on low for 6 hours (or on high for 4 hours).

STEP FOUR – Remove the chicken breasts to a plate and shred with two forks. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

STEP FIVE – Cover the chicken with plastic wrap and set aside.

STEP SIX – Add the egg noodles to the crock pot.  Cover and cook high for another 2- minutes.

Can I use different noodles for this soup?

You could use elbow macaroni, small shell, ditalini, orzo, bowtie pasta or fusili.

Add a different pasta shape in a bit sooner than the egg noodles since they will take longer to cook.

STEP 7 – Add the shredded chicken and chopped parsley back into the soup.

Stir and serve with crusty bread. We also love to sprinkle a little fresly grated Parmesan cheee on top for a tasty treat.

Storage Instructions

Store leftover crockpot chicken noodle soup in a covered airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
