Classic Chicken Noodle Soup

View Recipe: Classic Chicken Noodle Soup

Nothing beats a bowl of chicken noodle soup — it's familiar, flavorful, and instantly soothing. While we love our classic recipe, we've included some twists to satisfy all types of taste buds. 

Our rendition of Classic Chicken Noodle Soup is just what the doctor ordered. Bone-in chicken fortifies commercial unsalted stock and adds meaty depth to the soup.

Easier Chicken Noodle Soup

View Recipe: Easier Chicken Noodle Soup

When cheese-filled tortellini is the noodle in your chicken noodle soup, the whole bowl gets a hearty upgrade. Using cheese-filled tortellini as the noodle here adds more flavor than plain pasta; a hint of miso further enriches the broth. You can make the soup a couple of days ahead—just leave out the pasta, as it will swell once it goes into the liquid. Reheat the soup until it comes to a simmer. Then add the tortellini, and cook 6 minutes.

This broth packs a lot of flavor in just a little time. If you don't have the Sriracha on hand, thin slices of jalapeño pepper make a good substitute.

Broccoli and Chicken Noodle Soup

Count on having dinner on the table in about 40 minutes, and serve this soup the moment it's done for the best results. In fact, if you wait, you'll find it gets thicker with time. If you have leftovers, you will want to thin the soup with a little chicken broth or milk to the desired consistency.

Asian Chicken Noodle Soup

The old classic chicken noodle gains new life with the addition of garlic, ginger, lemongrass, and lime in this recipe. It's still warm, soft, and comforting, but with an updated, modern edge. Lots of easy variations on this dish are possible: Try soba, udon noodles, or rice instead of angel hair, or cubed tofu instead of chicken.

Rosemary Chicken Noodle Soup

To save cleanup time, cook the noodles first, and then use the same pot for the soup. Add the noodles to the soup just before serving so they don't absorb too much of the broth. You can bring the noodles to work in a zip-top plastic bag. Make the soup the night before, cool to room temperature, and refrigerate; reheat in the microwave or in a slow cooker set on HIGH.

Chicken Noodle Soup with Fresh Tarragon

View Recipe: Chicken Noodle Soup with Fresh Tarragon

Quality brown stock is the key to this recipe. Brown stock differs from white stock in that the chicken and vegetables spend half the time caramelizing in the oven and the other half in the stockpot flavoring the liquid. Once you have the stock made, throwing together this soup is a snap.
