Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups chicken broth (low sodium preferred)
  • 1 cup carrots, diced
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 12 oz egg noodles (or any preferred halal pasta)
  • 1 cup heavy cream or coconut cream (for a dairy-free alternative)
  • to taste salt

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by dicing the carrots, celery, and onion. Set aside.
Cooking
  1. Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of your crockpot. Top with the chopped vegetables.
  2. Sprinkle the garlic powder, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt over the chicken and vegetables.
  3. Carefully pour the chicken broth over the contents, making sure everything is submerged.
  4. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 3-4 hours until the chicken is tender.
  5. About 20-30 minutes before serving, add the egg noodles directly into the broth.
  6. Once the noodles are cooked, shred the chicken directly in the pot and stir in the heavy cream or coconut cream.
  7. Ladle the comfort into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

If you don’t have egg noodles, feel free to substitute with any halal pasta. For best results, use high heat for faster cooking or low heat for better flavor melding. Store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 2-3 months.
