- Shred the Chicken: Shredding the chicken ensures it’s evenly distributed throughout the soup.
- Season to Taste: Adjust the salt and pepper to your liking.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use a different type of noodle?
A: Absolutely! Rotini, ditalini, or even macaroni would work well in this soup.
Q: Can I make this soup ahead of time?
A: Yes, but the noodles will absorb some of the liquid. You may need to add more broth when reheating.
Q: Can I use leftover cooked chicken?
A: Yes! Just add it in during the last 5-10 minutes of cooking.
Q: How do I store leftover soup?
A: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
Q: Can I freeze this soup?
A: Yes, but the noodles may become a bit soft. It’s best to freeze the soup without the noodles and add them when reheating.
