🛒 What You’ll Need
🍗 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
🌽 2 cups corn, frozen or canned and drained
🍜 2 cups egg noodles
🥕 2 carrots, diced
🥬 2 celery stalks, diced
🧅 1 small onion, diced
🧄 2 cloves garlic, minced
🍲 6 cups chicken broth
🧈 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
🧂 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
🌿 ½ teaspoon black pepper
🌿 ½ teaspoon dried thyme
🌿 ½ teaspoon dried parsley
🍃 1 bay leaf
👩🍳 How to Make It
🧈 Start the vegetables:
Heat the butter or olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for about 5–6 minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften.
🧄 Add the garlic:
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, just until fragrant.
🍲 Build the soup:
Pour in the chicken broth. Add the thyme, parsley, black pepper, and bay leaf. Bring everything to a gentle boil.
🍗🌽 Add the good stuff:
Stir in the shredded chicken and corn. Reduce the heat and let the soup simmer for about 8–10 minutes so all those flavors can mingle.
🍜 Add the noodles:
Stir in the egg noodles and cook according to the package directions, usually until tender.
🍃 Finish it up:
Remove the bay leaf. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper as needed.
🥣 Serve warm:
Ladle into big bowls and serve with crusty bread, crackers, or a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
✨ Want to Make It Your Own?
🥔 Add diced potatoes for an even heartier soup.
🌶️ Toss in a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little kick.
🥛 Stir in a splash of cream at the end for a richer, creamier version.
🧀 A little shredded cheddar on top makes a surprisingly delicious addition!
🥕 Have extra vegetables in the fridge? Toss them in!
💡 A Little Tip
If you expect leftovers, consider cooking the noodles separately and adding them to each bowl. Noodles can continue soaking up broth as the soup sits, so this keeps your leftovers nice and soupy instead of overly thick. 😉
