Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large Vidalia onion, chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, halved lengthwise and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
  • 2 medium carrots, halved lengthwise and cut into 3/4-inch pieces
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Dash hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)
  • Dash Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed into bite-size pieces
  • 4 ounces egg noodles, about 1 cup
  • 8 ounces frozen peas
  • 1/4 cup freshly chopped dill leaves

Directions

Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the onion, celery and carrots and saute until soft, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the chopped garlic and saute until fragrant, 1 minute more. Whisk in the flour and stir frequently until it coats the vegetables and makes a paste. Cook until it reaches a pale blonde color, about 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the chicken stock, making sure there are no lumps. Add the bay leaf, hot sauce, and Worcestershire and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Let the soup simmer for 15 minutes to thicken and develop the flavors.

Reduce the heat and add the chicken and the noodles. Do not boil the chicken or it will become tough. Add the peas and the dill and simmer gently for 10 more minutes.

Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper, if needed. Ladle the soup into serving bowls and serve.

    Turned out very good but I was a little too heavy handed on the flour because the end result for me was more a stew than a soup. It still was delicious and filling. I also added fresh spinach and extra noodles. My kids loved it!! Can't wait to try more recipes from the Neelys.

    WOW was this soup good! There was only 3 of us and we ate almost all of it. I made it exactly as directed but I used Mrs. Miller's Egg Noodles and they made it even better. YOU MUST TRY THIS! Easy and delicious for real!!!
