Lemon Chicken Soup
This Lemon Chicken Soup has it all! Tender vegetables, juicy chicken, the best seasonings, noodles, and a hint of lemon throughout that savory broth. It is without a doubt one of the simplest, coziest soups out there. I like to sear seasoned chicken right in the skillet to get things started. The fond (brown remnants) gets deglazed with wine, which really sets a flavorful tone for the rest of the soup. From there a traditional mirepoix is prepared, along with the best seasonings and flavor enhancers. You are going to love this soup!
How to Make It
See recipe card below this post for ingredient quantities and full instructions. Season the chicken and sear in olive oil. Set aside and let rest, then shred or dice.
Deglaze the skillet with wine and “clean” the bottom/sides of the pot. Add onions, celery, carrots, and butter. Cook until the wine is reduced by half and the vegetables have softened.
Add the chicken broth mixture (chicken broth, bouillon, soy sauce, lemon juice, parsley, basil, oregano, mustard powder, and turmeric). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and add the chicken back. Simmer while you boil angel hair separately. Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan cheese. Add the pasta to serving bowls and ladle the soup on top. Serve!
Storage
Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Leftover soup does freeze/reheat well, boil fresh pasta for serving instead of storing it with the soup if possible!

4.5 Quart Dutch Oven– The perfect size for almost any soup recipe. Better Than Bouillon– This is what I always use for broth/bouillon in my recipes. It takes very little space and makes it easy to measure out customized amounts of broth. Measuring Spoons– I have these magnetic ones which stay nice and organized in my utensil drawer. Pinch Bowls– For measuring seasonings, etc. ahead of time. Soup Ladle 16 oz. storage containers. I use these to store/freeze my soups. They have 8 oz. sizes as well. They’re stackable, leak proof, and dishwasher/microwave safe.
