Chicken Noodle Soup with Coconut Milk

Chicken noodle soup with coconut milk, tender chicken, carrots and bowtie pasta in an herby chicken broth. Creamy and comforting with no heavy cream.

Ingredients

  • 16 oz bowtie fusilli, or penne pasta (I used organic Garofalo bowtie pasta), prepared according to package directions
  • 2 Tbs olive oil
  • 1 medium sweet onion diced
  • 1 Tbs minced garlic
  • 32 oz organic chicken broth/stock
  • 4 large carrots peeled and sliced
  • 1 Tbs dried oregano
  • 1 Tbs dried basil
  • 1 Tbs dried parsley
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 10 chicken tenders thawed
  • 4 cups coconut milk I used Silk original coconut milk

Instructions

  • Prepare pasta according to package directions.
  • Meanwhile in a large pot , heat olive oil over medium heat for about 1 minute. Add onion and garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes until onions are slightly translucent. Add chicken broth and bring to boil.
  • Add carrots, oregano, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer carrots for about 6 to 8 minutes until slightly tender.
  • There are two options for cooking the chicken: grilling or boiling in soup. Either grill your chicken for 3 to 4 minutes, cut into 1 inch pieces, and add to soup or cut thawed chicken tenders into 1 inch pieces and add to soup. Simmer only until chicken no longer pink. Add coconut milk and cook only until heated through. Remove from heat and add drained pasta.
