Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe
This is already my favorite go-to soup in my house. I’ve made it multiple times and is on a pretty much a weekly rotation.
I even brought it to the in-laws on Christmas!
Miss K LOVES this soup. In fact the first time I made this our little family ate the entire pot.
That’s a lot of soup.
I knew it was a winner and I needed to share it with you!
How to make Homemade Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe
- Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large stockpot.
- Sauté the vegetables until they just beginning to soften, about 7 minutes.
- Add garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
- Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and cook for 1 minute; stirring continually.
- Slowly stir in the broth. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the pan to remove all the cooked bits.
- Add chicken to soup and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, partially covered for 20 minutes.
- Next stir in the noodles, evaporated milk, salt, oregano and pepper. Stir to combine. Cook the soup for 10 minutes or until the noodles are al dente.
- Remove chicken, shred with two forks, then return it to the soup.
Pro Tips!
- This is a great make-a-head soup! If you make it the day before, it will taste even better on day two!
- Because this soup uses evaporated milk, it will not freeze well. The solid in milk (and non-dairy milk products) separate when frozen. Bottom line – it’s just not as good after being frozen. Additionally, pasta will often get mushy when frozen, thawed and reheated.
- Finishing the soup with a handful of minced parsley and a squeeze of lemon just before serving will brighten the flavors!
