Chicken soup ranks at the top of my favorites among all the cold-weather recipes. It’s comforting. It’s cozy. And, as you’ll see, there are so many ways to make it. This round-up of recipes shows you 25 different ways to make chicken soup.
From classic chicken noodle soup to twists on old favorites, these recipes are guaranteed to warm you up when it’s cold – I hope you find some inspiration!
Chicken Noodle Soup
It’s no secret that boxed chicken stock is no match for homemade, but I find that browning chicken breasts in some oil and butter and sauteing the vegetables in the browned bitsleft behind boosts otherwise boring boxed chicken stock. The soup is hearty with a deep flavor that’s brightened with a squeeze of fresh lemon before serving.

This Vietnamese soup has many wonderful flavors, like star anise, cinnamon, cilantro, red chili, citrus, and basil. In the end, it’s a simple but flavorful bowl of fresh rice noodles in a simple from scratch chicken broth.
Mexican Slow Cooker Chicken Posole
Posole (aka hominy) is the same stuff used to make corn tortillas and Southern grits. When combined with chicken and a spicy sauce, you get a bowl of comfort food you won’t forget. And, just like chili, it’s all about the toppings. I love the fresh radishes and cilantro Isabel used for her recipe. They add a bit of freshness to offset the richness of the stew.
