Spicy Chicken Noodle Soup
This Canadian-style soup is a wonderfully simple one-pot meal. Diced chicken is cooked with garlic before being simmered in a vegetable broth with carrots, corn, and red pepper. Thin rice noodles, dried basil, and chilli flakes are added to create a comforting yet spicy dish that is ready to enjoy in only 20 minutes, making it perfect for a speedy lunch or a warming dinner.
Ingredients
- 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 6 cups vegetable broth
- 3 carrots, sliced
- 0.5 cup frozen corn
- 1 (8 ounce) package dried thin rice noodles
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon chili pepper flakes, or to taste
Method
- In a large pot, cook the diced chicken, stirring until it is lightly browned, which should take about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and continue to cook for about 1 minute until its aroma is released.
- Pour the vegetable broth into the pot along with the sliced carrots and frozen corn. Bring the mixture to a boil. Add the dried rice noodles, diced red pepper, dried basil, and chilli flakes. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the noodles have softened.
