Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 2 stalks celery chopped
  • 2 medium carrots chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 teaspoons herbs de Provence
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce I used Sriracha
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce low sodium
  • ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon pepper or to taste

  • 2 green onions chopped for garnish

Instructions

  • In a large Dutch oven or soup pot heat the olive oil over medium high heat.
  • Add the onion, celery, carrots, garlic, red pepper flakes, herbs de Provence and stir. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes until the onion softens a bit and becomes translucent.
  • Add the hot sauce, soy sauce, salt, pepper, cooked chicken, dill, parsley and stir. Add the chicken broth and stir. Add the noodles, and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to a simmer and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Notes

  1. Herbs de Provence is a common herb blend including rosemary, marjoram, thyme, sage, savory, and lavender. If you can't find it, you can replace it with other herbaceous blends such as Italian seasoning.
  2. If you find the soup is too thick for your preference, feel free to add more chicken broth as needed.
  3. Refrigerate soup in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Chicken soup or broth goes bad quicker than cooked chicken by itself.
