Chicken Noodle Soup with Bow Tie Pasta

With the beginning of cooler weather, it's time for hot soups, stews, and chili. Chicken noodle soup is one of the most comforting foods to enjoy, especially when it's cold outside and you want to warm up inside.


Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp of all purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp of olive oil
  • 6 cups of water
  • 3 cups of chopped chicken breast tenders, uncooked
  • 4 cups of uncooked Bow Tie Pasta
  • 1/2 stick of butter
  • 4 chicken bouillon cubes
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 cups of kale (fresh or frozen) 
  • 1/2 cup of chopped celery
  • 1/4 cup of chopped green onion



Directions
Cook the bow tie pasta according to the package directions and set aside.

Heat a large pot on medium-high and add the olive oil. Let the oil get hot and then add the all-purpose flour. Stir to combine and let the sauce thicken. 

Add the 6 cups of water and heat the water until it begins to boil. Add the uncooked chicken breast tenders and carrots. Cook for 10 minutes. 

Add the butter, bouillon cubes, black pepper, and kale. Cook for 10 more minutes. Add the celery and green onions and cook for 5  minutes and remove from heat.

Serve the soup by adding the cooked noodles to each bowl and topping the noodles with the prepared soup. This will keep the noodles from becoming soggy or overcooked.

Enjoy!
