What Type of Chicken Do You Use?

I prefer to use either boneless chicken thighs or breasts. OR a combination of both. You can use bone-in chicken, but I prefer to avoid it because it involves picking the chicken off the bones rather than simply shredding it.

The addition of a basic roux to the broth is the action that gives this a thick and creamy consistency.

Roux is a combination of flour and fat, in this case butter, used to thicken sauces. In this recipe, I whisk flour while the butter is still warm. It only requires a quick stir to combine, then cooking for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden. Basically this cooks the flour.

To thin out this roux, I add a little of the seasoned broth and some heavy cream. As a result, adding it back into the broth is simpler, and the sauce is smoother.

How Do You Make Chicken and Noodles?

If you prefer a more traditional soup that is heavy on the noodles, just omit the roux step. Let me explain… The recipe starts out like any old chicken soup, but you boil the noodles in the broth which absorbs the liquid and creates a little starch in the broth.

  • Season chicken with the Montreal seasoning or seasoned salt. Set aside.
  • In a large Dutch oven combine the broth and water over high heat. Bring to a boil.
  • Place the chicken into the boiling water, and reduce heat to medium-low, and boil uncovered for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is tender, skimming off impurities that rise to the top.
  • While the chicken is boiling heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onions for 5 minutes until softened. Add in the carrots, celery, salt, pepper and thyme and sauté for another 5 minutes, until vegetables are softened. Add in the minced garlic, cook for 2 more minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
  • Remove the chicken from the boiling broth and shred using 2 forks.
  • Place the chicken back into the broth and add in the sautéd vegetables and the dry noodles.
  • Bring back to a boil and cook the noodles for 12-15 minutes, or until desired softness.
  • When the noodles are almost done cooking, melt the butter in the same skillet you cooked the vegetables over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until lightly golden. Ladle in 1 cup of the hot broth from the soup, continuing to whisk until well blended. Add in the heavy cream, whisk until smooth and then add this into the soup, stirring until combined and creamy. Bring back to a boil and then turn off the heat.
  • Garnish with parsley if desired.
