Let me show you how to make it
Ingredients
- 1 lb skinless boneless chicken breast
- 2 ½ cups dried egg noodles
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 3 celery stalks chopped
- 1 cup carrots chopped
- 1 cup brown onion chopped
- 1 Tablespoon chicken stock powder
- 1 Tablespoon garlic paste
- ½ Tablespoon ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon dried chili
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- ½ Tablespoon herbs de provence
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- Fresh chopped parsley to serve
- Water
Instructions
- Add olive oil to a soup pot on medium-high heat until hot. To the hot oil add chopped carrots, celery, and onions, and saute until soft and fragrant, say about 3-5 minutes.
- Add Herb de Provence, chopped garlic, and ginger and saute just until fragrant stirring constantly so that the garlic and ginger do not burn.
- Pour water into the mirepoix vegetable, add chicken stock powder, turmeric, chili flakes, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper to taste, and stir to combine. Slowly bring to a boil say for about 2-3 minutes for the flavors to meld.
- Add chicken breast pieces to the pot, and partially place the lid over it then bring to a boil for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken breast is tender.
- Remove the chicken to a plate and shred or cut to cubes (I like mine shredded), in the meantime, add the noodles or broken pasta to the pot, place the lid back on the pot, and cook until the noodle is al dente. It cooks in about 4-5 minutes so do keep an eye so that it doesn't get too soft or sloppy.
- Finally, return the shredded chicken back into the pot, stir to combine, and check for salt and other seasonings then adjust to taste. Also, add more water or stock if need be.
- Simmer for another minute or two and just before you take the soup off the add, stir in lemon juice and chopped parsley. Ladle the spicy chicken noodle soup into a bowl and enjoy.
