This isn't just chicken noodle soup, it's a warm hug in a bowl. Perfect for chilly days, or when you just need a little extra comfort. Watch how to make the easiest, most flavorful soup that will have your whole family asking for seconds (or thirds!).
Recipe:
2 chicken breasts or thighs (boiled or rotisserie will give you better texture, but you can cube and cook straight into soup if in a hurry)
1 onion diced small
1 carrot diced very small
1 stick celery diced small
2 cloves garlic minced
8 cups chicken broth or stock
6-8 oz egg noodles
1 Tbsp fresh thyme leaves
2 Tbsp olive oil
Salt
Fresh cracked black pepper
parsley for garnish
*optional 2 cups chicken bone broth
*optional 1/2 tsp red pepper
Prepare vegetables and chicken (be sure chicken cooks to 165F internal)
Bring dutch oven to medium heat and add olive oil.
Add carrots, celery, and onion and cook until onion translucent.
Add garlic and cook for another 60 seconds or until aromatic.
(If chicken is uncooked add now, and mix with ingredients for around 1 min, if already cooked add after broth.)
Add broth, deglaze and bring to boil, reduce immediately to simmer.
Add thyme ( and chicken if precooked)
Add salt, pepper, and red pepper to taste.
Let simmer on low for at least 20 minutes.
Enjoy!
Thank you for sharing this recipe!Home cooked meals beat any fast food restaurant! nowadays people forget how good home cooked meals/snacks are.
Couldn't agree more! Nothing beats a homemade meal.
I made chicken noodle soup last week and when my 13yo son came in and said “yes!!! You made chicken noodle soup” oh my heart!! ❤
Still always learning a new way of a great staple is fun!! That looks delicious!😊
That's the best feeling ever! It sounds like you have a great recipe!
Celery, onions, and garlic - the base for many dishes and great fragrance when cooking. Love the chicken noodle soup!!
😋😋
I've never heard of adding squeezed lemon juice to homemade chicken noodle soup and I'm66 yrs old. What does it do for the soup if you don't mind me asking?
It adds a bit of acidity and brightens the flavor a bit! You’re not really looking to give it a lemon flavor, just to enhance and brighten the flavors in the soup! I just squeeze a Tbsp or 2 from 1/2 of lemon!
Hope the kids get better soon. I know they appreciate your soup and all of the other loving things you're doing to care for them. I'm a celery lover. I'll eat it plain, with peanut butter, with cheese, etc. As I've gotten older, I've found that the meat is my least favorite part of soups, stew, and even pot pies. I guess I'd be making vegetable noodle chicken soup, lol. As always, appreciate spending time with you in the kitchen. Thank you!
That sounds pretty good as well!
A winner for sure! Also, rhe garlic is one of the healthiest parts! 😊
Hello and greetings from NYC. We always add a small piece of parmigiana cheese rind and a splash of either ketchup or tomato paste ( about a teaspoon) to the broth for extra flavor to our chicken soup.
Ooh that’s a great idea! I love when I find somewhere else to use my parm rinds!
Love watching You and Whitney raising your beautiful family ❤ the cooking videos are awesome!!
Celery is delicious
Glad you enjoyed the video! We love sharing these
I am so happpy to see that you BRIGHTENED the soup with lemon. It enhances the soup so much. I saw this done when i was little from my gramma.
I'm glad you caught that! It's the little things!
Hope everyone stays warm and everyone feels better. Thanks for sharing your cooking skills.
So glad you enjoyed!
I can’t wait to try this. I hope all of your sweet babies are feeling better. God bless you all. ❤
JUST IN TIME TODAY FOR SNOWY AND SNIFFLING IN PENNSYLVANIA. Thank you. BLESSINGS and may everyone feel better!
It is not soup time in Australia at the moment. It is closer to the 100oF.
I’m sick with a cold and will definitely be making this tomorrow night for dinner. ❤
Hope you get better soon!
Sounds delicious - I agree about celery, it adds a lot of flavor to so many dishes. Sounds like your dad could have been a good taste tester with you. Thanks Zach!
I love chicken soup i love seening you cook and and you are a clean cook❤❤❤
I love getting to cook! I’ve had the best time over these past few snow days trying new recipes!
Knife skills is what sets the pros apart from the rest 👍🏻😊 Always well done!!
I’m working on learning them!!!
Looks delicious! I've not had canned chicken noodle soup in years! I also cheat and use a jar of Zoup chicken bone broth. I sauté my chicken in the olive oil first, then add all the other items. Now I'm hungry!
Gotta try this! Thank you and so much better without the music!
I’m so making this next week. Praying everyone feels better
Thanks! They all got over it in time for the snow thankfully!
Looks delicious and fantasgreat!!😊
Thanks for sharing....now I have to try this!!
Thanks for watching! I hope you love it!
I can’t wait to make this because anytime we were sick my Mom always made us chicken noodle soup 🥣. It just makes you feel better. We were snowed in this weekend and I made taco soup and it was good! I’m in middle Tn and we got several inches of snow on Friday and Saturday. Hope everyone is feeling better in your house.
Thanks for sharing!
Thankfully everyone is better! So glad you enjoyed!
Great chicken soup recipe!!! Perfect for these cold months. Definitely going to make this recipe. Thank you for another great video!!!
Thanks for watching! I really appreciate the feedback!
Homemade noodles are stellar with it too
You do that every time you cook! many blessings for you & your family ❤
That looks lovely!👍😃
Chicken soup looks teally good & easy to make. 😋👍🏻
It is a simple recipe and it really is delicious!
❤looks delicious. Feel better soon kids. Lots of sickness in Missouri too. And over a foot of snow.
Wow! We only got about 3 inches here! Thankfully the kids were all better in time to enjoy the snow!
Zach, that looks sooooooo good! Really enjoyed your video!
Thanks so much!
@Thebateskitchen You're welcome!
Looks delicious and so easy! ♥️🙏🏻🙏🏻
I forgot how much I loved celery w peanut butter- now I’m craving it!
I’m just over here sparking memories😂
Wow Zach that looks amazing..perfect weather for it there..and even a little cool here..only time of the year we eat soup.. I've got to try rolling up my bulk herbs...wonderful idea...I never eat celery except in soup or chicken salad..I have always done like your sweet momma and cooked chicken and saved broth for soup...and wow...I need a pan like that this old lady has a had time with the heavy ones...as always wonderful video...looking forward to the next one...hope everyone is feeling better...enjoy that beautiful snow ❤
So glad you enjoyed it! I have an affiliate link in my Instagram bio that should save you a little bit if you choose to invest in an Emile Henry! You can also check them out at your local Williams Sonoma!
Hey Zach! I love the cutting boards! Where can I get them? I'm actually in the kitchen now following your recipe on my tablet. I've never used olive oil before making soup. GREAT idea. Hope the kiddos get well soon❤
Thanks so much! There are a few of my shorts that I have linked similar ones that I have seen! Mine came from Walmart or target on a sale but I’ve never seen it again or I would’ve bought another!
Side note..... How bout one of your talented construction bros make you some to use and sell here. You could have them put your logo on the top of the board. Just saying....
You make such great easy home cooked meals , packed with flavour! Thank you
It’s so satisfying for me to get to cook them! I’m so glad to see others enjoying!
Looks sooo good. Saving this recipe to try soon. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching! I'm so glad you liked it!
Chilly here in New York and this looks and sounds like it would hit the spot!!! Yum gotta make some thanks Zack …keep safe and warm and hope your adorable Kiddos are feeling better. Hi Whitney ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Love peanut butter and celery as well as cream cheese and celery
I am definitely going to make this recipe you make great vlogs I look forward to your posts and it is so much appreciate the time you take to answer us,it really means alot take care your family is fortunate to have such loving parents🥰
That means a lot to hear! Thanks for watching!
Hello Zach. I love celery and peanut butter as a snack.
Pretty close to the way I make mine. I agree, go ahead and saute those carrots and onions for a few and get those flavors around your pan. Homemade soups can be so quick and easy. Haven’t bought any canned soup in over a decade because they’re all pretty easy to make and so much better when you do it yourself. I love to put a lid on whatever soup I make and set it on top of our wood stove to simmer all day. Great recipe Zach!
I love that you simmer on the wood stove!
Pray everyone feels better. I made some last week just like this but no lemon. Will have to try that
Thanks so much! I little squeeze of lemon can brighten it a bit and add a bit of acidity! You’re not necessarily adding enough to give it a lemon taste, just enough to enhance the flavors!
That soup looks and sounds awesome.
Thanks so much! It's a real comfort food recipe.
Making this for sure!!!
Thanks for sharing. I will be trying this one for sure. Always looking for something different that everyone will love.
You're welcome! I hope you love it!
If you replace the chicken and chicken broth with beef tips and beef broth. It becomes Beef and noodle soup which is just as delicious! Great video! Enjoy the snow!
I do love my beef! Maybe I’ll do it with some strips of sirloin!
Zach looks amazing like always 😋💚keep on cook my friend 😁
Thanks so much!
That's my comfort food, especially with homemade broth, so yummy!
I need to make some home made bone broth or stock!
Chief Bates, hehe, looks awesome comfort foods I find though purple coloured onions less tears to cut and more flavor
I’m a big fan of purple onions, they give some beautiful color to dishes as well!
Yummy, perfect for a cold day
It’s a great comfort food for any day for sure!
Today is definitely a good day for soup 🍲
Thanks for sharing
😋😋
I love this channel!!
I’m so glad.
Yummy! Homemade chicken noodle soup is one of my faves! It's so easy to make and it makes you feel good all over. Hope your kiddo's get feeling better soon. God bless you and your family.
I love the easy recipes!
I love this
Yum! I hope you’ll share in future how to choose a good all purpose knife like you used there.
Can't wait to make this, I do make my own already but don't add everything you did. Def gonna try it. Hope kids feel better quickly and you & Whitney don't catch it.
Perfect for a snow day ❤
I agree, it’s the best comfort food!
Homemade chicken noodle soup is the best! Yum! 😊❤
Thanks for watching!
Looks great. Definitely going to try this one. Hope y’all are feeling better.
Thankfully everyone is better! Hope you enjoy it!
We love your videos. Soup looks delicious. 😊 definitely making this one. Have a great weekend.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome, Zach! May I recommend you try next time adding 1 parsnip, 1 Leek and 3 cubed gold potatoes to this. Your recipes are great!
That sounds like a great suggestion! Can’t wait til the next time I make it now!
Love chicken noodles soup
It’s a staple for a reason! Easy and delicious!
For the last 20 plus years I have made my husband's Nana's recipe and now I'm going to try this because of more seasoning and flavors.
I hope you enjoy it!
Looks yummy! Definitely going to make this one! Thanks! ☺️
You're welcome! Hope you enjoy it!
It looks so delicious Zach as always thank you for sharing. God bless.
You are very welcome! So glad you enjoyed it!
Looks delicious 😋
Thanks! It’s super easy to make!
That’s Looks very Delicious!
It tastes even better than it looks!
Chicken soup has been a staple in our home since I married into a polish family they always had it once a week but with mashed potatoes added on top sounds crazy but it turns out crazy like a fox. 🤤🙌🥳🤗
I never thought of putting mashed potatoes on top! Maybe I’ll try it sometime!
I make it homemade always and make homemade noodles that freezes as well.
Yummy ❤thank goodness for soup
It's perfect on a cold day!
Yumo! 😊
Nice
Soup looks good luv the accent
😂 glad you enjoyed!
Love your recipes and stories! I have a family of 4 and wished I could plan ahead and cook several meals like mama B! Seriously like a family pack of chicken only feeds us 4 now! I will definitely be cooking this soup, this week! We’re snowed in right now in bama 🤣
So glad you enjoy these! Stay safe out there!!!
Looks delicious right there Zach
Thanks!
@ you’re welcome Zach
That looks soooo good. I think if I cook it, I'll use boneless, skinless thighs. Much prefer the dark meat. And maybe add just a little butter. Butter makes everything better.
100% agree on the butter! I’ve never loved dark meat but Whitney does prefer legs and thighs as well
@@Thebateskitchen smart girl! My twin always preferred the white meat.
Yummy 😊loved the recipe
Thanks for watching and taking time to like and comment! I really appreciate it!
I love soups but my husband doesn't, so I don't make it very often. However, I may have to make this and potato soup sometime and he is just going to have to eat it lol. Thank you for sharing Zach.
I don’t eat a ton of soup, but when it’s cold outside nothing compares!
Yummy!
😋
Light background music would be chefs kiss these videos 😂
I did this one myself because we have been struggling through sickness and now weather! I wasn’t brave enough to try music! Although most of the time when my editor puts it in folks complain 😂
@ so sorry yall have been sick! You’re doing great, I enjoy these videos so much!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoy!
Celery and peanut butter is amazing!!! Not huge here in Australia though hahaha
This looks delicious and so comforting. Can’t wait to try it. Zack can you please share what kind of knife you are using. Thank you for sharing.
This one was my benchmade station knife! There is an affiliate link in my bio on Instagram! You can customize it to fit your individual style and budget as well!
Isaac this is Emma and a 68 it's going to be 69 in February I'm in clintonville Wisconsin I grew up in Marion Ohio live most of my time in Texas but here I am now 7 almost 7 years in Wisconsin I wanted to say thank you and God bless you and your family and thank you for the recipe you're doing great two thumbs up and I will pray for your children and your wife and I'm sorry they're sick 🙌👍👍🙏🙏🙏🩵
Who’s Isaac?
As always another great video. Thank you for sharing your chicken noodle soup recipe. I personally can't stand celery, I know crazy right. Could I use the celery seasoning or making bigger chunks of celery so I can eat around them should be ok right, as long as the flavor is still there.
Thank you for your time
You could absolutely do either!
Yum!!
Thank you Zach! Looks delicious. Would you please be able to tell me what kind of knife you use? What brand it is and do you have to sharpen it often? You could save this for a Q&A if you want to. Thank you! You gave me lots of good tips!
I kind of collect knives a little bit! I most commonly use a shun Fuji chefs knife, a miyabi santoku and my benchmade custom station knife. They do hold their edge well. The benchmade comes with lifetime sharpening if you send it off, but I don’t sharpen any of them frequently. I use a honing rod to keep them sharp but only sharpen them once a month or every several months.
@ Thank you so much for your personal reply. Zach, that is so kind of you. I never expected that. You and Whitney and your family and the entire Bates family are such a blessing.
Our dear 41-year-old daughter,Rachel, went to be with the Lord almost 5 weeks ago. I still can’t believe it. One of the only things besides reading the Bible and praying and listening to Christian music… that brings my heart Comfort is watching all of the Bates family UA-cam channels and the Duggers as well. I always loved both of your shows and wish they were both still on TV. But so thankful for You Tube. And now you can show us how to cook which is such a blessing. You make it look so easy … you’re so good at bringing it down to a level that someone could at least try to make something delicious.. Blessings to you and your family, to the Bate sisters, boutique, and to your real estate business as well! 🙏✝️
I enjoy connecting with each of you that take the time to reach out as much as I can. I’m so sorry to hear of your loss, I can’t think of anything that would compare with that pain. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
I like that knife, where can I get one of those? Tks
It’s a benchmade custom station knife! I have an affiliate link in my instagram bio that will save you a little money as well! There are alot of custom options that vary in price and material used. I have loved mine!
@@ThebateskitchenThank you
My dad’s siblings used to eat celery with peanut butter
Pimento cheese on celery is good
Not a huge fan of soup but this does look delicious and doing my weekly cancer treatment this looks like it would be easy to eat.
Prayers for you with your cancer. It does go really easy on your stomach!
Hello from NC
Hey neighbor!
Yum! It is similar to how I make my chicken noodle soup. I use chicken legs that I have roasted and a packet of chicken noodle soup too. Do you have Maggi brand seasoning sauce in the States? It is smilar to soy sauce but tastes better. I also put some of that in my soup. I agree with the pepper in the soup, but buttered french stick bread cut into slices with butter is the best to have with soup!
That’s so crazy! I actually had some French bread in a Wildgrain box with slow churned butter that we ate with it 😂 I should have gotten a picture of that as well!
I forgot to say I also put a tin of creamed corn in my soup too.
Zach that recipe looks delicious. It’s almost something like mine. I just want to ask what is the name brand of your Dutch oven?
It’s an Emile Henry! It’s a bit more fragile than cast iron of course, but I love the weight savings! I have an affiliate code with a discount in my instagram bio, but you can also purchase many other places.
@ thank you, Zach I already bought one but I’m going to return it because with your discount code and the price they were offering it was a wonderful savings! Thank you again for the discount code. Have a wonderful day.
Can you link the knife you use please?
Here you go! It is an affiliate link, but there are several customization options! bit.ly/4ewuMuM
This morning I took some chicken breasts out of the freezer for tomorrow. Now I know what I am going to make. I DO HAVE A QUESTION: How do you keep the scum from forming on the top when you cook with raw chicken? You lifted the lid to add the noodles, and there wasn't one bit of scum on top. I always have scum on the top that is hard to get it all. Thanks for another great recipe and the idea for dinner tomorrow.
Rinse your chicken and cut the fat off! Also cook at a simmer rather than a rolling boil to help reduce it. If you still get enough that it looks unsightly you can skim it off!
@@Thebateskitchen Thank you so much. I'm making your soup today for dinner so this answer came at the perfect time.
Awesome! I hope it was amazing, and that you guys enjoyed it as much as we do!
@@Thebateskitchen We DID! It was delicious and no scum at all. Thanks again. Blessings to you all!
Link to the apron?
I’m still working on some kinks in the design that aren’t my favorite!
Just made homemade chicken noodle soup with noodles from the amish store
I wish we had an Amish store close!
When making a big pot of soup for more than one meal, only add noodles to what you are using right away. Store the rest in the fridge or freezer without noodles and cook more as needed.
Great tip, thanks for sharing!
I wish you would’ve mentioned if the noodles were cooked or not I can’t tell?
I put them in uncooked, and they cooked in the broth!
❤
You'll always get more flavor out of roasted chicken. I prefer white meat only so I buy bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts and roast them in the oven and then spread them. Second best is shredding a rotisserie chicken.
Absolutely agree, there is more flavor in roasted chicken! I prefer the white meat only as well, but don’t mind mixing it up a bit with soup.
Zach, I love your cooking videos, but I think your Mic has a short in it today.
I didn’t realize but the battery died a couple times. I did this one on my own since we have been through sickness and then the weather and I made some rookie mistakes. Sorry about that
Dumb question: What kind/brand are your cutting boards? With the raw chicken on there, do you wash with just hot water and Dawn or what?
I generally use an alcohol spray for my cutting boards, but even though I probably shouldn’t, I will wash them quickly with hot water and dawn soap after chicken and dry them immediately.
@ you are so kind to reply. Prayers for health for all your family!
Thanks!
It's great as is, but add some milk or heavy cream for creamy chicken noodle soup.
You absolutely can!
