The best homemade chicken noodle soup with egg noodles! It’s a classic dish that I’ve honestly never really tried before. Quick and easy to make and a dinner everyone will love!

Ingredients:

Soup

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 2 medium carrots , peeled and chopped

• 2 ribs celery , chopped

• 4 cloves garlic , minced

• 2 bay leaves , fresh or dried

• Salt and pepper to taste

• 6 cups reduced sodium chicken broth

• 1 pound chicken breast tenders (I like to use Rotisserie chicken), diced

• Homemade egg noodles (recipe follows)

• Fresh or dried parsley (optional)

Homemade Egg Noodles

• 3 egg yolks

• 1 whole egg

• 6 T cold water

• 2 tsp salt

• 2 cups flour

Instructions:

Soup

• Make your egg noodles (recipe below) so that they can dry while you're making the soup.

• Place a large pot over medium heat and add olive oil. Add vegetables and garlic to the pot and cook until soft, about 5-7 minutes.

• Add bay leaves and season vegetables with salt and pepper, to taste. Add chicken broth to the pot and raise heat to bring liquid to a boil.

• Add diced chicken to the pot, return soup to a boil, and reduce heat back to medium. Cook chicken for two minutes then add egg noodles.

• Cook soup an additional five minutes or until noodles are tender and floating to the surface. Remove pot from heat.

• Stir in parsley and/or dill. Remove bay leaves from soup and serve hot.

Homemade Egg Noodles

• Beat eggs until well mixed.

• Beat in water and salt.

• Stir in flour with a spoon until combined. Once combined, separate into three balls.

• Roll each ball out thin and cut into thins strips with a pizza cutter.

• Let dry on a baking sheet with parchment paper or Silpat to avoid sticking.
