Creamy chicken, hearty noodles, and veggies slow-cooked for classic comfort and savory flavor.

# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Soup Base

01 - 4 cups low sodium chicken broth
02 - 1 pound raw chicken breasts, chopped (approximately 3 breasts, or substitute boneless skinless thighs)
03 - 5 medium carrots, peeled and diced
04 - 1/2 medium onion, diced
05 - 2 ribs celery, diced

→ Herbs and Seasoning

06 - 2 teaspoons dried thyme
07 - 2 teaspoons dried parsley
08 - 1 teaspoon salt
09 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

→ Finishing Elements

10 - 1 cup heavy cream (18% milk fat or higher recommended)
11 - 2 tablespoons corn starch
12 - 3 cups wide egg noodles or similar short pasta

# How to Make It:

01 - Combine carrots, onion, celery, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Store mixture refrigerated overnight for convenience, if desired.
02 - Place broth, chicken, carrots, onion, celery, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper into slow cooker. Cover and cook for 7–8 hours on low or 3 hours on high, until vegetables are tender and chicken is fully cooked.
03 - Turn slow cooker to high setting.
04 - Whisk together cream and corn starch until smooth. Stir mixture and egg noodles into the slow cooker.
05 - Cover and cook for an additional 10–20 minutes, or until noodles are tender and soup has slightly thickened.
06 - For a thicker consistency, whisk additional cream with corn starch and stir in. Monitor as soup will continue to thicken after standing.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Soup thickens as it cools; adjust final texture with extra cream and corn starch only if necessary.
