Provided by Molly O'Neill

Categories     soups and stews, main course

Time 1h

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 medium onions, peeled and chopped
2 cloves garlic, peeled
8 fresh tomatoes, peeled and seeded, or 6 large canned tomatoes, drained
6 tablespoons melted lard or light olive oil
Pinch powdered saffron, optional
Pinch chili powder, optional
1 recipe Basic Chicken Soup (see recipe)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups diced cooked chicken breast meat
1/4 pound Mexican fideos, vermicelli or cappellini, broken into 2-inch lengths
Fresh cilantro sprigs
Minced seeded hot green chilies
Diced avocado
Slivered Monterey Jack and/or grated Parmesan chees

Steps:

  • Puree the onions, garlic and tomatoes in a food processor, adding a little water if needed. Heat 3 tablespoons of melted lard or oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Slowly pour in the vegetable liquid, being careful to avoid spattering.
  • Add saffron and chili powder, if using them. Simmer gently, partly covered, for 10 minutes. Add the chicken soup and simmer gently, partly covered, for about 20 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper and add the chicken, keeping the soup warm over very low heat.
  • Heat the remaining oil in an 8-inch skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the noodles and saute, turning them gently, until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spatula and drain on paper towels. The soup can be prepared to this point up to 30 minutes before finishing and serving.
  • Bring the soup to a simmer. Add the noodles and cook until tender, about 7 to 8 minutes. Serve immediately, garnishing each portion with a sprig of cilantro. Pass the other garnishes at the table.

Tips:

  • Use a whole chicken for a richer flavor. However, you can also use chicken breasts or thighs.
  • Do not overcrowd the pot with vegetables. If you have a lot of vegetables, cook them in batches.
  • Add the noodles 5 minutes before serving so that they do not get overcooked.
  • Serve the soup with a side of rice or bread.
  • Leftover soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Puerto Rican chicken noodle soup is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The soup is flavorful and comforting, and it is sure to please everyone at the table.
