Dutch Oven Chicken Noodle Soup

I absolutely love my Dutch oven; it brings back cherished memories, from the delicious soups like this Dutch oven chicken noodle soup to the nostalgic memories of camping with my family and open fire cooking. This hearty and soul-warming bowl of soup, brings comfort and coziness to cold winter days.

Dutch Oven Chicken Noodle Soup

How to Best Utilize a Dutch Oven for This Recipe?

  • Even Heat Distribution:
    Dutch ovens are known for their excellent heat retention and even distribution. When simmering the chicken and stock, be sure to use medium-low heat to maintain a gentle simmer without boiling over.
  • Aromatics and Sautéing:
    Sauté the onions, garlic, celery, mushrooms, and leeks in the same pot after removing the chicken. This allows the vegetables to release their flavours directly into the soup base, resulting in a more robust taste.
  • Deglazing the Pot:
    When sautéing the vegetables, some flavourful brown bits may stick to the bottom of the Dutch oven. To make the most of those little flavour bits, deglaze the pot by adding a splash of the chicken stock and scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon. This will infuse the soup with those delectable flavours.
  • Lid Control:
    While simmering the soup, partially cover the Dutch oven with the lid. Leaving a small gap allows for slight evaporation and prevents the soup from boiling over. This ensures a more concentrated and flavourful broth.
  • Versatility in the Oven:
    Dutch ovens are oven-safe, so you can easily finish the soup in the oven if needed. Once the pasta is added, you can place the Dutch oven, covered, in a preheated oven at a low temperature for a short time to allow the flavours to meld even further.
  • Don't Forget to Stir:
    While simmering the pasta in the soup, stir occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom. This ensures even cooking and prevents clumping.
  • Keep it on Low:
    The Dutch oven retains heat exceptionally well, so you can turn off the heat a few minutes before the pasta is fully cooked. The residual heat will continue to cook the pasta gently without overcooking it.

How to use Rotisserie Chicken in the Dutch Oven Chicken noodle soup recipe?

If you prefer the convenience of using pre-cooked rotisserie chicken in your Dutch Oven Chicken Noodle Soup, there's an easy way to reinfuse it with flavour without compromising the taste. Follow these simple steps:

Rotisserie Dutch Oven Chicken Noodle Soup

  1. Chicken Stock

    Use the best Chicken Stock you can find and replace the water in step 1 with more good quality chicken stock.

  2. Extra Flavour

    Add teaspoon each, garlic powder and onion powder when sauteing the vegetables.

  3. Adding the Shredded Chicken:

    Toss in the shredded rotisserie chicken and let it simmer in the flavourful stock for a few minutes before pasta is fully cooked. This will help the chicken absorb the broth's essence, enhancing its taste. Take care to cook pasta al dente.

Description

Chicken noodle soup in dutch oven is one of my favourite comfort food recipes, its rustic and moreish - a hug in a bowl.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  1. 2 Chicken breast fillets
  2. 4 cups Chicken stock
  3. 4 cups extra water
  4. 1 teaspoon dried mixed herbs
  5. 1 tablespoons Olive oil
  6. 1 tablespoon Butter
  7. 1 Onion, finely chopped
  8. 2 Cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
  9. 2 Celery sticks, finely chopped
  10. 160g Cup mushrooms, thinly sliced
  11. 2 Leek (white part only), finely chopped
  12. 2 cups Risoni (or any other small pasta of your choice)
  13. 1 can Corn kernels
  14. 3 Sprigs parsley, chopped
  15. Salt and pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1.  In a Dutch oven or large saucepan, place the chicken breast fillets and pour in the chicken stock along with the extra water and mixed herbs. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes or until chicken fully cooked. Once done, remove the chicken breast fillets from the stock and set them aside. Strain the stock into a jug or bowl.
  2. In the same Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, crushed garlic, celery, mushrooms, and leek. Cook the vegetables, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until the onion becomes soft.
  3. Pour the strained chicken stock back into the Dutch oven with the sautéed vegetables. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  4. Add the risoni (or your choice of small pasta) to the soup and let it boil, stirring occasionally, for approximately 12-15 minutes or until the pasta is cooked to an "al dente" texture. (As per the package instructions.)
  5. While the pasta is cooking, cut the cooked chicken breast fillets into small pieces.
  6. Once the pasta is done, add the cut chicken pieces and corn kernels to the soup. Heat everything through.
  7. Finally, add the chopped parsley and season the soup with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
  8. Serve the Dutch Oven Chicken Noodle Soup immediately and enjoy a warm and comforting meal!
