We were at a restaurant, and my husband exclaimed, You can make better soup than this! A challenge! We began discussing what we’d add and take out, and soon came up with this comforting creamy chicken noodle soup. —Donnie Kingman, San Jacinto, California

Ingredients

  • 2 medium onions
  • 2 celery ribs
  • 4 cups water
  • 3 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

  • 1-1/2 teaspoons dried basil
  • 2 cups uncooked wide egg noodles
  • 1-3/4 cups whole milk, divided

Directions

  • 1. Chop 1 onion and 1 celery rib; set aside. Cut remaining onion and celery into chunks; place in a Dutch oven. Add the water, chicken, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 25-30 minutes or until a thermometer reads 165°. Remove chicken and strain broth; set both aside.
