Chicken Noodle Soup ( Filipino Sopas)



Feels like days are going faster, It was just New year's and now February is almost
over and that means Spring is almost here.

The weather here in Italy has been mostly nice.
Sunny but still really cold in the morning and at night.

I decided to make something good for when I feel cold. 
I think the boys loved it, I'm so glad.

There's so many version of Chicken noodle soup.
But, this one is special because I grow up eating this even when it's not cold in the Philippines.
Just a very staple food especially for breakfast.

Let me know what you guys think.






Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound chicken breast or legs
  • 3 cups water
  • 1/2 pound macaroni - elbow, shell or straight 
  • 2 tablespoons butter 
  • 1 medium onion - chopped
  • 1 tablespoon garlic - minced
  • 1 cup bell pepper - chopped
  • 1 cup carrots - chopped
  • 1 stalk celery (optional) - chopped
  • 12 fluid ounces (1 can) evaporated milk
  • 1 cup Vienna sausages or hotdogs - sliced 
  • 2 cups cabbage - chopped
  • 2 tablespoons salt or more
  • 1 tablespoons pepper

Instructions

  • Boil chicken breast in 3 cups water. Once cooked, remove from the stock and cut meat into smaller pieces.
  • In a deep pan, sauté garlic and onion in butter until tender. Add the chicken meat and noodles and cook for 5 minutes stirring from time to time to avoid burning the noodles.
  • Add the chicken stock to the pan and cover. Once it starts to boil add carrots, bell pepper, and celery and cover again.
  • Once the noodle is almost cooked, add the milk and sausage and season with salt and pepper. Let it simmer for a few minutes more until the noodles are completely cooked and soup starts to thicken. Add cabbage before turning off the stove.








Enjoy!
