Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe

Cooking this recipe in a cast iron pot really enhances the flavor but it’s not necessary if you don’t have one. Though, I love all of my cast iron and I recommend you get your hands on a good pot and a good skillet that are both cast iron! They’re so useful and if well cared for, can last for decades.

How to make my favorite chicken noodle soup recipe:

Start by chopping your chicken. For faster cooking of your soup cook your chicken in the oven or on the stove top before starting your soup while you chop the other ingredients.
Shop your carrots, celery, and onions.
Place meat and veggies into your soup pot and place on the stove over medium heat.
Pour the chicken broth over your chicken and vegetables.
Place the lid on your post and bring to a boil.
After your soup has come to a boil add in your egg noodles and herbs. Cook for 6-8 minutes stirring occasionally to keep noodles from sticking.
When the noodles are cooked remove the soup from the stove and serve hot.
This soup can be saved in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
