Tips and techniques
- Use low sodium broth to prevent soup from becoming too salty.
- The amount of spices and herbs can be adjusted, based on your preference.
- Adjust the amount of vegetables, based on your preference.
- Lime juice can be added instead of lemon juice. It adds a subtle delicious zesty tanginess and takes this soup to a whole new level.
- Always use fresh herbs for garnish because they look nicer and they also pack a lot of fresh flavor.
Variations
- Chicken vegetable soup- Add any vegetables of your choice like green beans, corn, celery, onions, carrots, broccoli e.t.c. Please note that frozen vegetables cook faster than freshly chopped vegetables.
- Creamy version- Stir in some heavy cream or half and half or even some cream of chicken soup. Another option is to dissolve some cornstarch in water and stir that in the soup to thicken it.
- Follow the recipe below but omit the noodles to make a very simple soup. It would be very thin without pasta and thus, I would suggest mixing in some cornstarch mixture to thicken it.
Recipe FAQs
I start with uncooked chicken that cooks in the crockpot for a few hours and eventually gets shredded but you can easily use leftover baked chicken from a previous meal or rotisserie chicken. Just shred it or slice it into small cubes and mix it into the soup.

This soup looks fab. I'm loving the rosemary you've included - it doesn't seem to make it into many soup recipes.

I already made this and it is so delicious and nutritious I love the fact that you can control your own sodium and I actually used medium shells instead of egg noodles and it came out incredible.
