How to Make 25 Minute Chicken Noodle Soup

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 1 diced onion and 2 minced carrots and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in 8 cups chicken broth, 1 cup chopped cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken works great!), 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. Add 1 cup egg noodles and cook according to package directions, usually about 8-10 minutes, or until tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add a squeeze of lemon juice for extra brightness (optional).
  6. Serve hot and enjoy your quick and delicious chicken noodle soup!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
