How to make Chicken and Vegetable Noodle Soup
Prepare the chicken
- Step 1
Season the chicken thighs with paprika, cajun seasoning, chicken seasoning, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and oil. Mix well to coat evenly.
- Step 2
Heat a pot on high heat and sear the chicken thighs on both sides. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and cook for 12-17 minutes, turning the chicken occasionally.
- Step 3
Once cooked, set the chicken aside to cool. Shred the chicken using a fork or kitchen scissors. You can also add the bones for more flavour.
Prepare the soup base
- Step 1
In the same pot with the chicken juices, add onion, leeks, and garlic. Stir and cook for 5 minutes.
- Step 2
Add chopped vegetables including carrots, sweet potato, potato, and sweetcorn. Stir well.
- Step 3
Season with paprika, Cajun seasoning, chicken seasoning, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, thyme, bay leaves, and chicken stock cubes. Stir for 5 minutes.
Combine and cook the soup
