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. 

Counting down to slow cooker soup time in 4, 3, 2…
