What’s In This Potato Chicken Noodle Soup?
I cook with fresh produce from my garden and from Misfits Market– they sell fantastic fruit, vegetables, & pantry staples at a discounted price. We get Misfit boxes every other week and love picking out seasonal produce for delivery. Get $10 off your first box by clicking here!
- Potatoes, Carrots, Garlic, Celery, Parsley
- Egg Noodles – I like a traditional wide egg noodle for this soup.
- Locally Raised Chicken: We get most of our meat from a local farm a mile down the road – we bike over to the farm store and stock up! If I can’t get local chicken, I get this kind in an online delivery. You can also use leftover rotisserie chicken for this recipe too.
- Onion
- Olive Oil: I like to use this fruity Zoe olive oil which has a fantastic flavor and deep color- it’s really inexpensive online here, so I keep a few liters stocked up in my pantry. For the quality of oil you get, it’s an excellent value, I would highly recommend!
- No Salt Vegetable Stock or Bouillon: I love this no salt vegetable base for my recipes because it has a great flavor and is lower in sodium. I only develop my recipes with low sodium ingredients so the ingredients shine. You can always add salt to a recipe if it needs it, but it’s almost impossible to take it out! By starting with a low sodium broth or bouillon, you can build bright vibrant flavors and add more salt later if needed. This soup base is also gluten free!
- Pink Himalayan Sea Salt: I like to use a pink Himalayan Sea Salt in my kitchen, which has more natural minerals than plain processed table salt. It’s fairly inexpensive, so I’d recommend this salt if you’re looking for an easy way to level up your spice pantry.
- Tellicherry Peppercorns: Like the salt, it’s amazing the flavor difference you can get with really good tellicherry black pepper. Amazon has a generic brand tellicherry peppercorn which is the same price is buying pre-ground, and has a million times more flavor… so I use these really great tellicherry peppercorns, which I would definitely recommend.
How To Cook Noodles For Soups
For most of my recipes, I cook the noodles separately from the soup broth. If you add dried pasta directly to a hot soup, you run the risk of having the pasta soak up all the broth and overcooking the noodles (turning it soup into a mushy mess).
I’ve found that cooking the pasta separately, then serving the broth over the noodles in a bowl works best. I allow the soup to cool, then add the cooked noodles after, when I refrigerate. That way you’ll have perfectly cooked pasta that holds it shape and a delicious brothy soup.
How Do I Make This Potato Chicken Noodle Soup?
- Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain, and set aside.
- In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil over low heat. Add the garlic and onion and sauté for 6 or 7 minutes until translucent. Toss in the carrots and celery and cook for 5 minutes longer.
- Add the vegetable stock, cooked chicken, thyme, pepper, and salt. Bring to a boil, and cook for 30 minutes until vegetables are tender.
- Remove from heat and stir in the peas and parsley. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- To serve, add 1/2 cup cooked pasta to a bowl, ladle the hot soup over the pasta.
- If meal prepping or serving later: make sure the broth is cool before adding the noodles, or else pasta will overcook and become mushy. Only add noodles to the hot soup if you are eating right away.

Used half vegetable stock and half chicken broth, turned out delish. The whole family enjoyed it!
I made a vegan “chicken” soup using this recipe with white beans, less potatoes, and with some “not-chick’n” bouillon and it came out great! Thank you for the recipe!
