What Goes Best with Gordon Ramsay Chicken Noodle Soup

When I prepare Gordon Ramsay Chicken Noodle Soup at home, I often think about what to serve alongside it to make the meal even more special. A side of crusty bread is my go-to choice, as it’s perfect for dipping into the flavorful broth. For those looking for a lighter accompaniment, a simple green salad dressed with a vinaigrette can add a fresh contrast to the warm, hearty soup. If I’m feeling particularly indulgent, I might even prepare a batch of garlic bread or cheese toasties, because let’s face it, cheese and bread are a match made in heaven with any soup.

Ingredients

To make Gordon Ramsay’s Chicken Noodle Soup, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 2 carrots, peeled and diced
• 2 celery stalks, diced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1.5 liters of chicken stock
• 2 bay leaves
• 500g chicken breast, skinless and boneless
• 100g noodles (I prefer using egg noodles for this recipe)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

How to Prepare Gordon Ramsay Chicken Noodle Soup

1. Start with the Base: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery, and sauté until the vegetables start to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
2. Add the Liquids: Pour in the chicken stock and add the bay leaves. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to let it simmer.
3. Cook the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the pot. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Once done, remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool slightly before shredding it into bite-sized pieces.
4. Noodles In: Return the shredded chicken to the pot. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the noodles. Cook according to the noodle package instructions, or until they are al dente.
5. Season and Serve: Discard the bay leaves and season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.
