My grandma always made THE BEST homemade chicken noodle soup for us growing up. I like to make the stovetop recipe, but I wanted to see if I could make it even more convenient in the crockpot! Turns out that letting the chicken cook for 3-4 hours with vegetables and herbs makes it even better! If you are looking for an easy, delicious, healthy weeknight dinner, then this crockpot chicken noodle soup recipe is the recipe for you!

Ingredients in Crockpot Chicken Noodle Soup
Chicken Breasts – Boneless skinless chicken breasts work great for this crockpot chicken noodle soup. The chicken turns out so tender and shreds so easily after cooking in the crockpot all day. You can also use boneless skinless chicken thighs. Onion – In this recipe, a blended onion helps to make the base of the broth. It is so flavorful!Water – As the chicken cooks in the water, it infuses the water with delicious flavor, creating chicken broth. That mixed with the onion makes for a perfect broth! Kosher Salt – A little salt for flavor! If you would like to add more spices you can add fresh herbs or dried herbs such as rosemary, thyme, parsley, garlic, black pepper, or bay leaf.Chicken Bouillon – Chicken bouillon granules add more flavor and depth to the soup. Carrots – Try to slice all the carrots to the same thickness so the vegetables cook evenly. Celery – Same as the carrots, try to cut it all to the same size! Egg Noodles – You can use homemade egg noodles or store-bought. I have even seen frozen egg noodles that would work. Wide egg noodles or regular will work.
Chicken Soup for the Soul
It’s the classic tale that every mom tells her child, but it turns out there is some truth to the idea that chicken soup helps the common cold. The hot broth is known to clear congestion and hydrate the body to get rid of those pesky viral germs. Our mom always told us if we really want to kick our colds, add more onion and pepper. Plus, a nourishing bowl of soup just feels so good! It’s one of our favorite things to make anytime we feel a bit under the weather.
