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!

  • Leave the chicken in the fridge until ready to use.
  • Be careful of dripping juices. Clean up immediately.
  • Do not wash raw chicken (prevents cross-contamination).
  • Wash all utensils and cutting boards.
  • 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.

You will need the following ingredients to make this Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe (see recipe card for quantities): Chicken Breasts, Celery Stalks, Carrots, Water, Low Sodium Chicken Broth, Yellow Onion, Thyme, Ground Coriander, Salt & Pepper, Dried Sage, Egg Noodles, Celery Salt and Vegetable Bouillon.

  1. In a saucepan heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken and cook until chicken is cooked all the way through. Stir in the celery and carrots, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes stirring often.
  2. Sprinkle the salt, pepper, celery salt, coriander, and sage over the chicken mixture. Add the chicken broth and 3 to 4 cups of water. Add Vegetable bouillon. Bring to a boil.
  3. Once boiling, add the Egg Noodles. Cook the noodles for 10 to 12 minutes. Add water according to your preference or thickness.

→ Contrary to popular belief, a whole head of celery is called a stalk and a single “stick” from the stalk is called a rib. Since most call a rib of celery “stalk”, I use the term Celery Stick to try and avoid any confusion.
