Photo: Quick Chick and Noodle Soup Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons (2 turns around the pan) extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
- 1 parsnip, peeled and chopped
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 ribs celery, chopped
- 2 bay leaves, fresh or dried
- Salt and pepper
- 6 cups good quality chicken stock
- 1 pound (the average weight of 1 package) chicken breast tenders, diced
- 1/2 pound wide egg noodles
- A handful fresh parsley, chopped
- A handful fresh dill, chopped
Directions
Place a large pot over moderate heat and add extra-virgin olive oil. Work close to the stove and add vegetables to the pot as you chop, in the order they are listed.
Add bay leaves and season vegetables with salt and pepper, to taste. Add stock to the pot and raise flame to bring liquid to a boil. Add diced chicken tenderloins, return soup to a boil, and reduce heat back to moderate. Cook chicken 2 minutes and add noodles. Cook soup an additional 6 minutes or until noodles are tender and remove soup from the heat.
Stir in parsley and dill, remove bay leaves and serve. This is a thick soup. Add up to 2 cups of water if you like chicken soup with lots of broth.

I just made this recipe and think it is very good, but still something is missing. I used a whole package of egg noodles (12 oz.
instead of 8 so that was a little much (not recipe's fault, mine. I do think next time I will add another parsnip. Another reviewer used poultry seasoning on the chicken before adding it and that sounds like a good idea. Guess I'll keep making adjustments each time I try it because you sure can't beat it time-wise.

Was looking for a quick chicken noodle soup and this fit the bill. I was a little nervous about the fresh dill because I never used it before, but it really worked well. It was a little salty, but I think that was my fault for going a little heavy when I was cooking out the veggies.
