How to Make Crack Chicken Noodle Soup
Here’s how to make this cozy and delicious soup:
Cook the Bacon: In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set it aside, leaving a bit of bacon grease in the pot for added flavor.
Sauté the Vegetables: Add the diced onion, carrots, celery, and garlic to the pot. Sauté until the vegetables are softened and the onions are translucent.
Add Chicken and Broth: Add the chicken pieces and chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it cook for about 15 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through.
Add Ranch Seasoning and Cream Cheese: Stir in the ranch seasoning and cream cheese. Continue stirring until the cream cheese has melted and is fully incorporated, creating a creamy base.
Add Noodles and Cheese: Add the egg noodles to the pot and cook according to package instructions until they’re tender. Stir in the cheddar cheese until melted.
Season and Garnish: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Crumble the cooked bacon over the top and stir gently to combine.
Serve and Enjoy: Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve hot.
