Easy Chicken Noodle Soup

another day in paradise

Being able to make a chicken soup with little effort and lots of reward is that mama level cooking I aspire to. I want to achieve those classic, comforting flavours that can bring you back to life without having to make a 24 hour stock or rely on any cubes or powders. You might look at this recipe and think it needs more seasoning, but I would avoid that temptation and save all those urges for the garnish.

My wife and son love to have this soup with yogurt and lemon, my daughter likes it pretty plain with some croutons, and I almost always add a spoon of Mexican salsa verde, some citrus, and a few raw onions.

You can make a big batch and come back to this throughout the week, redefining it with whatever toppings suit your mood.
