This soup is a lot thicker then your average chicken noodle soup which personally I love, It gives it a alfredo type of texture but with delicious chicken stock flavoring as the flavor.

🤔 Common Questions

What makes this chicken noodle soup creamy?

Unlike a typical thin, brothy chicken noodle soup, this recipe starts with a butter and flour roux, then finishes with heavy cream stirred in at the end. That combination gives the broth a thick, almost alfredo like texture instead of a watery one.

How to make chicken noodle soup creamier?

The two keys are a roux (butter + flour cooked together before adding liquid) and heavy cream stirred in near the end of cooking. Both thicken the broth and give it a richer mouthfeel than broth alone.

Is creamy chicken noodle soup healthy?

It’s a comfort food dish (about 585 calories and 30g protein per serving), richer than a broth-based soup thanks to the heavy cream and butter. It’s still packed with protein and vegetables, so it can fit into a balanced diet in moderation — using half-and-half instead of heavy cream is an easy way to lighten it.

    This was so good! My boyfriend loved it. Never tried Sazon in a soup. This made the broth really good. Thank you for the recipe

  2. Melissa does it matter if you use bone in chicken or boneless chicken breast to add to the soup. The recipe doesn’t specify.

    1. I use boneless chicken breast but you can use either as long as you remember to get the bones out of the broth.

  3. 5 stars
    Awesome Melissa. My entire family loved it. We made crescent rolls and they enjoyed every bit of the soup. It’s a great base for a chowder. Ordered your book this morning. Thank you so much for sharing

  4. 5 stars
    This is the most filling and savory chicken noodle soup I’ve ever had. It’s delicious! Next time I’ll be adding more broth as I didn’t feel like it has enough; it’s not very soupy. Other than that, 10/10!

  5. This soup was fantastic! I used low sodium broth but next time I will tey 1/2 water and half broth. I will also wait to add salt until end to tedium sodium! Delicious 🤤
