Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup from Scratch: Broth, Noodles & All


Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup from Scratch

If you've ever wondered what real, from-scratch chicken noodle soup tastes like, you're in for a treat. This is the recipe that starts with a whole chicken, fills your kitchen with the most incredible aroma, and ends with a bowl so rich and flavorful you'll never look at canned soup the same way again. It's a labor of love, yes — but the kind that rewards you tenfold. Perfect for Sunday afternoons, sick days, or anytime you want to feed your people something truly special. Let's dive in!

Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken (about 4 lbs)
  • 10 cups water
  • 1 onion, quartered
  • 3 carrots, cut into chunks (plus 2 more sliced for later)
  • 3 celery stalks, cut into chunks (plus 2 more sliced for later)
  • 2 garlic cloves, smashed
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
  • 2 teaspoons salt, plus more to taste
  • 8 oz egg noodles
  • Fresh parsley and dill, chopped

Instructions

  1. Place the chicken in a large pot with water, onion, chunked carrots, chunked celery, garlic, bay leaf, peppercorns, and salt.
  2. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer. Cook for 1 hour, skimming any foam that rises.
  3. Carefully remove the chicken to a plate and let cool. Strain the broth, discarding solids, and return the broth to the pot.
  4. Shred the chicken meat, discarding skin and bones.
  5. Add the sliced carrots and celery to the broth and simmer for 10 minutes until tender.
  6. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package directions.
  7. Return the shredded chicken to the pot, season to taste, and stir in fresh herbs before serving.

Chef's Notes & Tips

  • Skimming the foam keeps your broth clear and clean-tasting.
  • Don't rush the simmer — a full hour draws out maximum flavor from the bones.
  • Freeze leftover broth in portions for future soups and sauces.

Making chicken noodle soup from scratch is one of those kitchen rituals that feels deeply satisfying — and the taste is absolutely worth every minute. I hope this recipe becomes a tradition in your home, just as it has in mine. When you make it, snap a photo and share it with someone who needs a little homemade comfort in their life. Happy simmering!
