At one point or another, we all get sick. What’s better than a good Chicken Noodle Soup to fight a cold? Sure you can take cold medicine, etc. but you know the old saying, feed a cold and starve a fever. So here is my wife Brandi's Chicken Noodle Soup recipe.
This homemade Chicken Noodle Soup is very easy to make and so much better than any soup you can get in a can. Trust me on this one. This is one of the few recipes that my wife has shared with me that is off the chart!
🐓 How to Handle Raw Chicken
Leave the chicken in the fridge until ready to use.
Be careful of dripping juices. Clean up immediately.
Do not wash raw chicken (which prevents cross-contamination).
Wash all utensils and cutting boards (if applicable).
If marinating the chicken, make sure you toss the juices before you cook. Don't ever use the juice from the marinade.
Wash your hands after handling raw chicken.
Like most soup recipes you can adjust some of the ingredients to your liking. We prefer chunky soup so I tend to cut the chicken into larger size chunks.
While you can omit some of the seasonings, you will be missing out. They add a bunch of flavor to an otherwise bland chicken noodle soup.
An ingredient substitution I make on occasion is to use a chicken-based bouillon instead of a vegetable bouillon. It all depends on what flavors you want to enhance for this soup recipe.
