Best Noodles and Flavor Tips
Best Noodles for Chicken Soup:
Egg noodles are the traditional pick. Rotini or fusilli also work well. Use what you have on hand in a pinch.
Flavor Boosts: Reviewers love adding bay leaves, garlic, rosemary, thyme, or even herbes de Provence. Customize to suit your taste.
Smart Substitutions: Swap in rotisserie chicken for quick prep. Use bouillon cubes and water instead of broth. Use oil if you’re out of butter.
Serving Suggestions
This soup is a full meal on its own. But pairing it with something starchy makes it even better. Try:
- Basic Biscuits
- Grilled Cheese Sandwich
- French Baguette Slices
- Classic Dinner Rolls
- Toasted Garlic Bread
Each complements the rich broth perfectly.
Storage and Freezing Instructions
Storing Leftovers:
You can refrigerate soup in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days.
Can You Freeze Chicken Noodle Soup?
Yes! Freeze soup in labeled freezer bags for up to 6 months.
Pro tip: Freeze the soup and noodles separately to avoid mushiness. Reheat on the stovetop.
