Chicken Instant Noodle Soup
This soup is oh so yummy when you’re down with a cold and everything else tastes like cardboard.
Ingredients
- 2-3 pieces of uncooked dark chicken pieces like thigh and drumstick (with or without their skin)
- 1 onion sliced
- 1 onion diced finely
- 1 carrot chopped roughly
- 1 carrot cubed
- 1 small potato cubed
- 2 tbsp chopped parsley
- 1 cup noodles
- 2-3 tbsp sweet corn
- salt/pepper to taste
- 1/4 tsp garlic paste
- 3-4 peppercorn
- 1 tbsp butter
Instructions
- Boil the chicken pieces in a pan of about 6 cups water, along with the sliced onions, roughly chopped carrots, some parsley, garlic, peppercorn and salt. If fat gathers at the top, skim it out and discard.In the meantime, boil and drain your noodles and immediately rinse them with cool water and set aside.Also, boil the cubed potato until very tender and then mash in its water and set aside.Once the chicken is tender, remove the pieces on to a cutting board and let them cool for some minutes. Strain the broth with a fine sieve and discard the ingredients (cooked carrots/onions/peppercorn n parsley). Set the broth aside. When the chicken pieces are cool, peel off the skin and discard, and then chop up the meat into bite sized cubes.Heat the butter in a deep pan and add your onions and a dash of pepper. Fry until the onions are translucent, then add the cubed carrot, sweet corn and the chopped chicken. Stir for a bit until the butter coats all the other ingredients, then add your broth.Boil together on medium heat until the carrots soften, then add your mashed potato, remaining parsley and the noodles. Adjust water, salt and pepper and boil for a few minutes until all the ingredients are mixed together well. Serve hot!
Notes
If you like, you can squeeze lemon directly onto the bowl of chicken noodle soup right before eating.

Fauzia, what do u mean by dark chicken pieces, and do i need to have skin on chicken..does it effect the taste
Hi, dark meat when it comes to chicken is basically the thigh and leg parts, they are normally tastier and the bones add flavour to the soup, but you can use breast meat too. You can have the skin on and remove it later or keep it off, both are fine.
do u have any recipe for thai soup?
Not yet.
you are wonderful may God help u and continue 2 protect u
The soup was ok! Too plain
The soup was ok! Too plain for me I had to add additional spices, the Known soup flavours finished this recipe off better than salt/pepper
The soup is meant for someone
The soup is meant for someone who is a little under the weather. Too spicy is not a good idea when one is not well. If you are having it just like that, then you can of course adjust the flavour to suit your own taste-buds. Not sure what known soup flavours means.
Yep, I added the additional
Yep, I added the additional flavour to suit my own taste buds and it was better for me; Sorry I meant Knorr not Known lol!
Assalam just wanted some
Assalam just wanted some clarification, do I have to put in carrots other than those which have been used during boiling of the chicken. I understand that the cooked carrots/onions/peppercorn n parsley used for boiling the chicken cannot be used again in the recipe. Please confirm
W/Salaam, yes exactly, you
W/Salaam, yes exactly, you will not re-use the veggies used for boiling the chicken as all their flavour has been infused in the stock/soup and the chicken. Those veggies can then be discarded.
I’m craving some soup,
