Flu Fighter Chicken Noodle Soup
Description
The Flu Fighter Chicken Noodle Soup recipe starts by sautéing onions, celery, carrots, garlic, and red pepper flakes with herbes de Provence until softened. This aromatics base builds layers of flavor. Adding hot sauce, soy sauce, and seasoning creates a savory broth enriched with spice and umami. Cooked shredded chicken, freshly chopped dill, and parsley integrate into the broth, imparting freshness and herbal notes. Egg noodles cook in the simmering broth until tender, resulting in a hearty texture that complements the chicken and vegetables. The soup is finished with chopped green onions for a mild sharpness. This recipe balances comforting warmth and bright herbaceous flavors, suitable when feeling under the weather.
