Instructions:
When you're feeling under the weather, what's better
than a steaming bowl of chicken noodle soup? When stomach-soothing
Bigelow® Ginger Snappish Tea is added to the
mix, this soup becomes the perfect antidote for cold and flu
season.
Combine 2 cups of hot water and 3 Bigelow® Ginger
SnappishTM tea bags and allow to steep for
approximately 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, using 2 forks, shred the cooked chicken breast. Use
one fork to anchor the chicken breast to the cutting board, while
using the other fork to "scrape" the chicken into shreds. This is
easily achieved if you shred along the grain of the chicken breast.
Alternately, you may simply cut the breast into bite-sized
pieces.
In a medium saucepan or soup pot, combine the chicken broth and
the tea over high heat. Add the garlic, carrots, shredded chicken
and noodles. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
Simmer for approximately 7 to 10 minutes, or until carrots are
tender and noodles are cooked.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Add chopped parsley and adjust
seasonings as necessary.
Ladle into bowls and serve hot.
Note: To make this soup ahead of time, proceed as directed but
omit the noodles and the fresh parsley. Store in refrigerator for
up to 2 days, or freezer for up to 2 months. When ready to serve,
pour into a medium saucepan, add noodles, bring to a boil, then
reduce heat and simmer until noodles are cooked and soup is heated
through. Adjust seasonings, add fresh parsley and serve.
