How To Make Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup
Chicken noodle soup is a classic comfort food that warms you up from the inside out. While traditional chicken noodle soup is delicious on its own, adding a creamy twist takes it to a whole new level of comfort and flavor. In this blog post, we will show you a step-by-step guide on how to make chicken noodle soup creamy.
Ingredients:
- 2 chicken breasts
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 carrot, diced
- 1 celery stalk, diced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups egg noodles
Instructions:
- Start by boiling the chicken breasts in a large pot filled with water until they are cooked through. Remove the cooked chicken breasts from the pot and let them cool. Once cooled, shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
- In the same pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced carrot, celery, and onion, and cook until they become soft and translucent. This will take around 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Next, pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Add the shredded chicken back into the pot along with the egg noodles. Cook for another 8-10 minutes until the noodles are tender.
- Now it’s time to make the soup creamy. Slowly pour in the heavy cream and stir well to incorporate it into the soup. Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 5 minutes to thicken up.
- Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Remember to taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
- Remove the pot from the heat and let the soup cool slightly before serving.
And there you have it – a delicious and creamy chicken noodle soup that will warm both your body and soul. This comforting dish is perfect for chilly days or when you simply need a bowl of homemade goodness. Serve it with some crusty bread or a side salad for a complete meal. Enjoy!
