Rotisserie Chicken Noodle Soup is a quick and comforting classic, packed with tender shredded chicken, hearty vegetables, and perfectly cooked noodles in a rich, flavorful broth. Using rotisserie chicken cuts down prep time, making this an easy go-to meal for chilly nights or when you need a warm, nourishing bowl of goodness.
Remove the meat from the rotisserie chicken, discarding the skin. Cut the meat into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Place the chicken bones in a pot with the broth and water. Simmer over low heat for 30-40 minutes to enhance the flavor. Strain out and discard the bones. This step can be done ahead of time.
Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Cook for about 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are softened.
Pour in enough broth to make a total of 8 cups and bring to a simmer. Cover and let cook for 15-20 minutes.
Add the chopped chicken, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer for another 10 minutes.
Cook the egg noodles separately according to the package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water.
Stir in the peas and cooked noodles.
Adjust the seasoning if needed, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
Notes
Chef Jenn's Tips
Simmering the bones in the broth deepens the flavor—don’t skip this if you have time.
Add extra veggies like zucchini or spinach to make the soup even heartier.
If you have homemade chicken stock, use it for an even richer taste.
Swap egg noodles for rice or another pasta shape for variety.
For a creamy version, stir in a splash of heavy cream before serving.
