Ingredients

  • 4 lbs. Roma Tomatoes - halved
  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil + more for tomato roasting
  • 5 oz. Homemade Style Wide Egg Pasta
  • 2 Tbsp garlic - finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 1 cup cilantro - roughly chopped, divided
  • 1 lb. chicken breast - cubed
  • Feta cheese and lime wedges for topping

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 400F. Place halved tomatoes on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Roast for 30 minutes, or until they begin to caramelize. Once tomatoes are cool enough to handle, roughly chop and set aside.
  2. While tomatoes are roasting, heat a large stock pot over medium high heat. Add the remaining 1 Tbsp. olive oil and pasta. Cook until pasta begins to brown (this will take about a minute). Next add the onion, garlic, oregano and cumin. Cook until the onion is softened. Add the stock and 3/4 cup of cilantro. Bring to a simmer and add the cubed chicken breast. Cook chicken thoroughly.
  3. Add the tomatoes to the soup mixture and continue to cook for a few minutes allowing the flavors to meld.
  4. Divide soup into servings and top with Feta, Lime wedges, and remaining cilantro.

Notes

This recipe was a huge hit with the Country Pasta team. For this soup we do suggest gently breaking up the pasta into smaller "spoonable" noodles.

Grandma’s Chicken & Noodles

6 Servings

Grandma’s Chicken & Noodles

Recipe Submitted by Deborah S. from Idaho

Save RecipeSave Recipe
Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2+ cups de-boned cooked chicken (I roast a 2 1/2 - 3 lb. chicken one night, then cover it with water and boil down the leftovers and remove all the bones & cartilage)
  • Liquid from boiled chicken 8-10 cups
  • 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granules
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery (use leaves if attached)
  • 1 cup chopped white or yellow onion
  • 1/2 cup carrots, grated or chopped small
  • 2 tablespoons butter 1 teaspoon dried parsley salt & pepper to taste
  • 1/2 package Country Pasta Egg Noodles

Instructions

  1. Bring the chicken broth and chicken to boil.
  2. Add all other ingredients except noodles.
  3. Simmer until vegetables are tender.
  4. Add noodles and boil until noodles are tender, about 20 minutes.

Notes

To roast whole chicken: remove the neck and giblets, wash and pat dry with paper towels. Spread soft margarine all over skin and place about 1 tablespoon in the cavity (or can use spray oil, butter will burn.) Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan, the one that comes with most ovens works great on a cookie rack. Sprinkle with lemon pepper, seasoning salt, paprika, and a little poultry seasoning, sprinkle inside cavity also. Bake uncovered at 375 degrees for about 1 hour, turning it over after 1/2 hour. To test for doneness separate the leg and thigh from the body, if juices run clear it is done, if it is still red or bloody continue cooking, checking at 10 minute intervals.
