Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Chicken and Aromatics: Spray a skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Add the cubed chicken and cook, stirring frequently, for approximately 4 minutes. Introduce the chopped onion and continue cooking until the chicken is lightly browned and the onion becomes slightly translucent, about 3 more minutes. Transfer the mixture to your slow cooker. (Estimated time: 7 minutes)

02

Step

Combine Ingredients in Slow Cooker: Add the chopped carrots, sliced celery, diced bell pepper, dried thyme, and pepper to the slow cooker. Mix well to ensure even distribution. Stir in the can of diced tomatoes, ensuring they are undrained. Pour in enough chicken broth to just cover the vegetables. (Estimated time: 5 minutes)

03

Step

Slow Cook to Perfection: Cover the slow cooker and set it to Low for 7 hours. This allows the flavors to meld and deepen, creating a rich and satisfying soup. (Estimated time: 7 hours)

04

Step

Cook the Egg Noodles: While the soup is slow-cooking, prepare the egg noodles. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Add the egg noodles and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until they are tender yet firm to the bite (al dente), approximately 6 to 8 minutes. Drain the cooked noodles and set aside. (Estimated time: 8 minutes)

05

Step

Final Assembly: Once the slow cooking is complete, gently stir in the cooked egg noodles into the soup. Cover the slow cooker and allow the noodles to warm through and absorb some of the flavorful broth, about 5 minutes. (Estimated time: 5 minutes)

06

Step

Serve and Enjoy: Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.

For an even richer flavor, consider browning the chicken in a little olive oil before adding it to the slow cooker.
Feel free to add other vegetables such as zucchini, corn, or peas to customize the soup to your liking.
If you prefer a thicker soup, you can mash some of the vegetables against the side of the slow cooker before adding the noodles.
Adjust the amount of chicken broth to achieve your desired consistency. For a heartier soup, use less broth; for a lighter soup, use more.
For a more intense thyme flavour, add fresh thyme (about 1 tablespoon, chopped) at the end, right before serving.
