    This slow-cooker Asian chicken noodle soup is the perfect cold-busting recipe. Fragrant, nourishing and with lots of noodles and gently poached chicken, it's perfect for winter.

    The end of January and almost every time I think about making dinner the first thing that comes to mind is a slow cooker. The second thing that comes to mind is that I've been fighting off a cold for what seems like forever. So, of course, my mind goes to chicken noodle soup. 

    But, I dunno... not so mainstream. I'm thinking of all the flavors I need when I'm sick. Light, fresh, gingery, mildly citrus. So, we're using all those flavors to make this slow cooker chicken soup.

    I wasn't sure about this recipe when I was putting all the ingredients together. I thought it might not have enough flavor. Not enough personality and presence. But, nope.

    One spoon full and I was fully committed to making this my new winter soup. And you will be too. Because we're all about the simple, slow cooker, soothing soups.

    How to make slow cooker Asian chicken noodle soup

    • Put all your ingredients in a slow cooker.
    • Turn the setting to low and cook for 5 hours.
    • Shred the chicken with 2 forks.
    • Remove the lemongrass and star anise (you can just leave them in if you want a really strong flavor)

    This soup is so easy that I only have one hot tip about making this. Cook and store your noodles separately. That's because noodles are like sponges and will soak up all that broth while in the fridge.

    And that's it! That's all I got for today.

    Ingredients

    • 4 Cups Chicken broth or water
    • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    • 1 stalk lemongrass cut into 1 inch pieces
    • 1 thumb size piece of ginger diced
    • 1 star anise
    • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
    • 1 teaspoon fish sauce
    • 1 cup spinach or kalettes
    • 1 large carrot sliced
    • 2 cups egg noodles
    • cilantro

    Instructions

    • Place all ingredients in a slow cooker. Cook on high for 3-4 hours. Once cooked, shred the chicken using 2 forks and remove the lemongrass stalk.
    • Boil the noodles according to the package instructions.
    • Place noodles in the bottom of a serving bowl and ladle the soup over top. Garnish with some chopped cilantro to taste or some micro herbs.

    Notes

    The noodles don’t have to be hot when serving. Pouring the hot soup over them will warm them perfectly for eating.

      Hi,

      Do you need to add any water or chicken stock to the slow cooker?

      Thanks
