This dish is one of my family’s all time favourites. It combines garlic buttery chicken with fresh vegetables and soft egg noodles in a delicious salty broth. It’s amazing on a damp, cold day like today. The rain had fallen all day long and the ground is still frozen. It made for one of those bone chilling, body chills kind of days.
This soup is so easy to make. It only takes about half an hour to put together but it tastes like it’s been simmering forever. The key to it is to season the yummy chicken and cook the vegetables until they’re soft before adding the broth. They soak in the yummy garlic butter flavor and it just gives it a bit more of a kick. So good!
I won’t keep blabbing away as I’m sure you’re searching for the recipe. It pairs well with fresh bread or biscuits with butter. So delicious. Enjoy and let me know below if you make it!
