Chicken Rotini Soup

Read Reviews (20)

"This is a very easy chicken soup to make. Fresh chicken cooked in chicken broth with pasta and mixed veggies. A great homemade chicken soup without the hassle of straining your own stock." — JULIESLP

Directions

Place enough water in a 5 quart pot over high heat to boil the pasta. Place the bouillon in the water and bring to a boil. Place the rotini in the boiling water and cook according to package directions. Drain and set pasta aside.
In a large pot over high heat, combine the chicken broth and water. To this, add the celery, onion, carrots and chicken. Bring to a boil and stir in the reserved pasta. Reduce heat to medium low, let simmer and season with the garlic powder, onion powder and salt and pepper to taste. Cook 20 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and chicken is no longer pink. Serve hot.

For a simple recipe this soup had good flavor. To keep the noodles from getting too mushy I cooked them as directed but then didn't add them to the soup until the very end, just to warm them up.

I followed the recipe exactly as written except I halved it. It made a big enough pot for 4 people to have seconds, with just a little left over. I used campbell's broth with garlic and herbs, and also added the cooked noodles at the end, to prevent them from getting mushy! This was easy to make and tasted awesome, thanks!!!

I love this recipe - I add the noodles separately and freeze it without them - then I thaw it and add more noodles later. It works great.

I went on and gave the poster a full 5 stars even though I changed some things. I added a can of cream of chicken soup, used a can of peas and carrots drained added oregano and basil. I also didnt use bouillon because I cant ever find it in the stores here. Hubby loved it and says keep making it. Thanks!!! Oh I also used a can of chicken instead of a fresh chicken.

I thought this soup was fast and easy. I like the flavor. I personally cut up two extra carrots and added an extra cup of bouillon. I like garlic so I did add definitely to taste for my family and I. Also I love cooking with wine so I had some and I put a splash of white wine in with. Yum.

Simple recipe that is pretty flexible. I didn't have onion powder but I didn't think I needed it since there was already an onion in the soup. I used to slow cooker to cook my chicken and then used the stock in the pot and vegetables made this recipe even easier and the chicken even more tender.

Made this last night for dinner, I was sick and it hit the spot! I did do a few things different. I had 3 blsl chicken breasts, that I rubbed with the seasonings from sticky rotisserie style chicken recipe on this site covered with foil and baked 350 for 1 hr. and I cooked the noodles in the soup the last 20 min. what a great soup will make again. it was easy and yummy. next time I think I might add a little more carrots and celery, as I like a hearty soup.
