EASIEST CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP



Easiest Chicken Noodle Soup image

The majority of shortcut chicken soup recipes use rotisserie chicken. It's a convenient hack, but cooked chicken doesn't absorb flavors very well. On the other hand, sautéing ground chicken in olive oil with garlic, coriander and celery seeds (or fennel seeds and rosemary, or herbes de Provence) creates a deeply complex base. Add the vegetables, then the stock and the noodles for a complete meal that cooks in 30 minutes. You can use egg noodles, cavatelli or alphabet noodles, but you may want to adjust the amount of stock to taste, since they'll each absorb a different amount of liquid.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound ground chicken
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon celery seeds (optional)
1 large carrot, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 celery stalks, halved lengthwise, then sliced 1/2-inch thick
1 large shallot, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves)
7 to 8 cups chicken stock, plus more as needed
8 ounces dried egg noodles, cavatelli or other small shaped pasta
Crème fraîche, chopped fresh parsley and dill, and lemon zest, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add the chicken, season generously with salt and pepper, and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until starting to crumble, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, coriander and celery seeds (if using), and cook, stirring frequently, until chicken is cooked through, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, scoop the chicken into a small lidded bowl (to retain moisture); cover and set aside.
  • Add the carrot, celery, shallot, thyme and the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the pot, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until slicked with fat, 3 minutes. Add the stock (7 cups for a stew-like soup or up to 8 cups for a brothy soup) and bring to a boil over high.
  • Add noodles and cook over medium-high until al dente according to package directions. (If the noodles absorb a lot of liquid, add more broth according to taste.) Add the reserved chicken and any accumulated juices and heat until warmed, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls; top with a spoonful of crème fraîche, a fistful of torn herbs and lemon zest.
