The Best Crockpot Chicken Noodle Soup
NOTE: In the comments, you will see that a few people have reported their noodle disintegrating after adding them to the crockpot. I have no idea why this is happening, and have NEVER had that happen any of the times we have made this soup. BUT, I have only used No Yoke brand noodles. Other people have also reported success with No Yoke Noodles and Walmart Generic brand noodles. If you do not have access to those brands of noodles and are concerned, you can also just boil your noodle separately.
Directions
- In a 6 quart crockpot place whole chicken breasts on the bottom and top with , carrots, onion, celery, garlic, olive oil, thyme and bay leaf.
- Next add in chicken broth, water, and season with salt and pepper to taste. I used 1/2 teaspoon salt & 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
Cover and cook on low heat 6 – 7 hours.
- Remove cooked chicken breasts and cut into bite sized pieces. Place chicken back in to the crockpot. Now add in egg noodles and parsley.
Cover and cook just until noodles are tender, 5-10 minutes.
- Enjoy with your favorite crackers!

I made this a couple of weeks ago, OMG it was delicious! I doubled the seasonings and suated it with the onions, carrots and garlic. It’s best to cook the noodles separately, I’m making it again today. I used the crock on high-6hrs.
If i put on high in the slow cooker how long do I cook for 3-4 hrs? I just started it on high.
I’ve made it before it’s amazing but in sick and want today. So,someone please answer
Will this work out the same cooking on low for 4 hours?
Looks like a great recipe! Can’t wait to try it. I was wondering why the parsley isn’t being cooked with the other ingredients from the beginning? And isn’t it true, that you can not reheat parsley?
Great recipe, spiced it up a little with some Everyday Seasoning from Trader Joe’s. Turned out great. My noodles were fine…I used the No Yoke & followed the directions. (My chicken was frozen, I cooked on high for 2 hours, pulled them out & chopped up…but veggies needed a little longer to soften)
