Crockpot Chicken and Noodles

When the cold weather sets in there’s nothing quite like a big bowl of soup to warm you up and is there any soup more classic than chicken noodle soup? What makes this one even better is the fact that it’s made completely in a slow cooker or crockpot.

This flavorful soup is as easy as throwing ingredients straight into the slow cooker and just letting it do it’s thing, while you’re off running errands or maybe even putting your feet up. You deserve it. Towards the end of the cooking time, you’ll just shred the chicken and add some dried pasta and it’ll be ready for the table in another 30 minutes.

Chicken Noodle Soup Ingredients

  • Chicken: While I’ve used chicken breast here, thighs will work too. Remove the skin and any excess fat as this could leave an unsightly scum on top of the soup when it’s done.
  • Onion, Celery, Carrot, Garlic: This 4 ingredient vegetable combination gives most of the flavor base to the soup. It’s a classic combo for a reason.
  • Chicken Stock: All chicken stocks are not equal. Make sure you purchase a good quality one as it will make a huge difference to the flavor of the soup. If the stock is completely clear, it likely doesn’t have the flavor we’re after here. Use a cloudier stock and notice the difference.
  • Dried herbs: This version uses dried oregano and thyme which give a good herby flavor without being overpowering. You could use herbs like basil, sage or rosemary too but note rosemary will give a more intense herbiness to the soup.
  • Salt & Pepper: It’s always important to season your soup. Add these in as per the recipe but taste test before serving and add a little more to your taste before serving if needed.

How To Make Slow Cooker Chicken Noodle Soup

Perfect for a busy and cold day, this soup only has two steps and the longest amount of time you’ll need to spend on it is chopping vegetables and shredding chicken. It couldn’t be easier.

  1. Add vegetables, dried herbs, seasonings and chicken to a slow cooker and pour over the stock.
  2. Cook on low for 7 hours (or until the chicken can be easily shredded).
  3. Remove the chicken and shred it using two forks then add it back to the slow cooker.
  4. Break dried pasta, like fettucine or spaghetti, into 3 and add it to the slow cooker, leaving it on low.
  5. As different pastas are different thickness’ check to see if it’s done after 20 minutes but it should take no longer than 30 minutes.

Can I Add More Vegetables?

You can certainly add more vegetable to your slow cooker noodle soup. I wouldn’t change the base of celery, onion and carrot due to the flavor they impart though. Try adding some diced bell pepper along with them or adding frozen peas with the pasta at the end. Just know if they are still frozen, it will cool the soup down so you may need to cook it longer for the pasta to cook through.

If you want to get really fancy, saute some mushrooms in butter at any point during the day, keep them in the fridge and add them in the last ½ an hour. This is exactly what I do in my slow cooker beef stroganoff which also happens to work great with chicken thighs.

How to Store Leftovers

This is definitely best eaten fresh. The pasta will continue to swell and soften the longer it sits in the soup so will be much softer the next day. However, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge.

If you want to freeze the soup, it’s best to freeze it without the pasta, then cook the pasta up when you heat the soup.

Split pea soup is one of those feel good soups that’s also good for you. Don’t let the color of this incredibly delicious soup throw you. Its vibrant color just means it tastes good and is healthy too. The aroma is unbelievable and the flavor will keep you coming back bowl after bowl.

Split pea soup is one my go to favorites after I’ve cooked a ham and have leftovers. It’s the perfect way to use the hambone and not let it go to waste. It gives the pea soup just enough of that salty smoky flavor that makes this soup irresistible. The ham also gives it an extra punch of protein and will help satisfy your hunger.  Another plus to this recipe is the fact that split peas are so cheap. So if you use leftover ham, it’s quite a low cost hearty dish. Serve it with a side of rolls and a nice green salad and you’ve got a meal that’s sure to delight!

Ingredients For Pea Soup

Hearty and wholesome, this soup is chock full of good for you ingredients. Herbs and spices give that extra umph and flavor. If you don’t have a leftover ham bone you can use, ask the butcher for one at your local grocery store. You can also leave out the ham bone and just add ham. It won’t be quite as flavorful but still amazing.

  • Butter: For sautéing the vegetables.
  • Onion: A classic ingredient for most soups.
  • Carrots: Dice into bite sized pieces.
  • Celery: Add incredible flavor to the stock.
  • Garlic: Gives the split pea soup a nice flavor.
  • Dried Split Peas: These can be found with other dried beans at your local store.
  • Chicken Broth: Flavor and the base of the soup.
  • Ham bone: If you don’t have one on hand, see if you can get one from your local butcher.
  • Salt and pepper: Add more or less to taste.
  • Fresh Thyme: Fresh gives a nice light flavor. You can use dry, just use ½ teaspoon.
  • Chopped Ham: This is optional, but you’re going to love the extra flavor it gives.

How to Make Split Pea Soup

Like most soups this Split pea soup is pretty hands off once you sauté the vegetables. The longer you can let it simmer the more the flavors will meld together. Whip this up with plenty of time to make some biscuits to go with it.

  1. Sauté: In a large pot over medium high heat ad the butter and let it melt. Add the onion, carrots, celery and garlic. Sauté until tender
  2. Add: Pour in the split peas and chicken broth. Next carefully place in the hambone.
  3. Simmer:  Bring to a boil and simmer uncovered for 60-90 minutes stirring occasionally. Cook until the peas split and soup has thickened.
  4. Shred: Remove the hambone and shred the ham. Add it back to the soup. Add salt and pepper and thyme. Garnish with additional ham if needed.

What are Split Peas?

  • What are they? Split peas are field peas that are dried, peeled and split in half for easy cooking. They come in both green and yellow varieties, which can be fun to add both to the soup. The yellow ones tend to be more mild in flavor and the green split peas are sweeter. That’s why they pair so perfectly with the salty ham. As they cook they will thicken and create a wonderful creamy texture, perfect for soup.
  • Do you need to Soak Them? Split peas are small so they don’t need to be soaked. The long cooking time for the soup is more than enough to give these split peas the soft texture you want.  Just give the split peas a nice rinse before adding them to the soup. Since you don’t have to soak the peas, it saves you time in the beginning. The long cooking time also allows the flavors to meld beautifully together and they will cook down and thicken to a perfect texture.
  • Are they Nutritious? Split peas are definitely good for you. They are low in fat, high in fiber and protein, and are a great source of vitamins and minerals including magnesium.

Tips and Variations for Pea Soup

  • Add Vegetables: This is a hearty soup already, but you can even more depth to it by adding in a few red or yellow potatoes with the diced carrots.
  • Thicken: When cooking the peas should break down and thicken on their own, if you feel you want it thicker, simmer uncovered for the last 20-30 minutes. Do note that the soup will thicken as it rests and cools. You might actually need to thin it out with water the next day.
  • No Ham Bone: If you don’t have a ham bone don’t worry. You can still get that great flavor from thick chunks of sliced ham. Throw them in with the stock and allow it to simmer along with the rest.  Add bacon at the end for garnish and even more flavor if you desire.

Storing Leftover Soup

If you have any leftovers, which are always better the next day, they can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Keep it tightly sealed, and remember it will thicken as it sits. Add broth or water to thin it as needed. Reheat on the stove top on medium low or microwave individual portions.

Can I Freeze It?

Yes, this soup will freeze well! First let the soup completely cool and place in airtight containers or freezer safe ziplock bags. This will keep in the freezer for up 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat the next day.

Onion rings make the perfect side dish to your favorite meals. Pair them with Chicken, Grilled Cheese, or Burger.

Air Fryer Onion rings with sauce on a plate.

Homemade Onion Rings

Along with french fries, and tater tots, onion rings are hands down one of my favorite things to get at restaurants. They are always so crispy, the onions are tender and they are so full of flavor. Now you can get the same, if not better, onion rings right in your own home. These air fryer rings are perfectly seasoned and crisp up impeccably, while the onion becomes super tender. Your family is going to love these.

Air frying these onion rings also makes them a healthier option than deep fat frying. That is definitely a win win! You can have your “fried” food and eat it too! You may want to make a double batch, because these are going to disappear about as fast as you can make them. So it’s probably a good thing these are so easy and the air fryer makes cooking them super fast. If you are making multiple batches, serve them as they come out or keep them warm in the oven. They are best hot!

Ingredients for Onion Rings

These ingredients are easy to find and probably in your pantry right now! Air fryer onion rings are packed with flavor that is going to wow!

  • Flour: All purpose flour or unbleached work well.
  • Baking Powder: Creates a light crispy batter.
  • Eggs: To help the batter adhere to the onions.
  • Panko: An ideal coating for air frying.
  • Parmesan: Use finely grated parmesan for best results.
  • Paprika: Adds color and flavor.
  • Garlic Powder: Adds a nice kick of flavor.
  • Olive Oil Spray:  Use to coat the onion rings for great crunch!

Makeing Onion Rings in the Air Fryer

Similar to my Crispy Onion Rings that can be baked or fried, these are super easy. It doesn’t take much to make  restaurant worthy onion rings right in the comfort of your own home.

  1. Cut: Slice the onions ¼ inch thickness into rings.
  2. Flour Mixture: In a small bowl add the flour and baking powder.
  3. Egg mixture: In another bowl add the eggs and whisk.
  4. Breading:  And in the last shallow dish add Panko, parmesan cheese, paprika and garlic powder.
  5. Dunk: Dip one onion ring in the flour, then the egg, and lastly in the Panko mixture. Repeat with all of the onion rings.
  6. Air Fry: Add the onion rings to the air fryer basket and put in a single layer. Spray the onion rings with the olive oil spray. Cook at 360 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.

How to Make Crispy Onion Rings

When it comes to making the perfect batter for onion rings, there may be a few questions that come to mind.  Here is my advice on making the BEST onion rings you have ever had.  Follow these tips to master the art of a crispy onion ring your family will go crazy over!

  • Best Onions to Use: I like the sweet onions best, vidalia are one of the best. Yellow or white onions will work too, but keep in mind that white onions have a sharper bite to them than a yellow or sweet onion.
  • How to get the best onion flavor: When biting into an onion ring, you want to get a sweet and bright onion flavor.  To achieve this unique flavor, you will need to start by soaking the onion slices in cold water.  Allow them to chill in the water for at least 10 minutes.  Dry them off completely before beginning to batter them.
  • How to keep batter from falling off onion rings: In order to keep that tasty and crispy breading on your onion you will want to use cold batter.  Also, make sure you shake off any excess flour before dipping the onion in the egg mixture.  You need thin layers as you go.
  • How to cut the onion: Cut the stem end off and remove the peel. Then trim off the root end. Now cut a thin slice off the end of the onion to keep the onion from rolling while you slice it.  Finally, place the onion flat side down and cut crosswise into thick slices for the perfect onion rings.
  • How to get extra crispy onion rings: For an extra crispy coating, double dip the onion rings in the egg and panko mixture. Also, when cooling the onion rings, place them on a wire cooling rack with paper towels below it so that the crispy rings are not laying directly on a pan, it can cause them to steam a bit and get soggy on the bottom.

Tips for the Best Air Fryer Onion Rings

Creating home cooked, restaurant style food at home is always a treat, like this fried rice or fish tacos that taste just like they came from your favorite take out. These air fryer onion rings along with air fryer wings and egg rolls are just that. A taste of take out in the comfort of your own home.

  • Don’t Over Crowd: Don’t stack your onion rings, allow them some space so the air can circulate and really crisp them up all the way around.
  • Know your Air Fryer: Every air fryer is a bit different, just like every oven or crockpot is a bit different. You may need to add more cooking time or shorten it depending on how crispy you want them and how fast your air fryer cooks. Check your first batch a couple of times to nail down the time.
  • Don’t shake or Turn: Unlike some recipes that have you turn or shake your air fryer while cooking is happening, you won’t want to do that with onion rings. It will make all the batter fall off. Another reason why you don’t want to over crowd.
  • Cut them the same thickness: With onions you can’t control the circumference but you can control the thickness. Keep them all the same for even cooking.
  • Oil:  Be sure to spray the onion rings with oil thoroughly, this is what will give the onion rings their crunch. Yes it’s oil, but remember your still not bathing them in it, so it’s still better for you than deep fat frying. Use a high smoke oil, like canola, or avocado oil for best results.
  • Seasonings: These are super versatile. Feel free to add in different spices and seasonings according to your tastes. Add Italian seasoning, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika or chipotle chili powder for variation.
  • Sauces: These onion rings are super good on their own but feel free to dunk them in your favorite sauces. Try my favorite fry sauce, homemade ranch dressing, yum yum sauce or even this incredible cheese sauce for starters.
