You don’t have to be under the weather to enjoy chicken noodle soup. After growing up in Min nesota, where the cold always made it chicken noodle soup weather, I carry on the tradition, despite living elsewhere. This version is not only easy to make, it will bring back warm and fuzzy feelings on a cold or dreary day.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and lightly coat a 9 × 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the noodles, cook until al dente, drain, and return to the pot.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, carrots, and garlic and cook until softened. Whisk the ﬂour into the pan with the vegetables. Add the milk slowly, mixing well to combine, until a sauce is created. Add the thyme, basil, salt, and pepper. Stir in the chicken, noodles, and 1 cup of the cheese.
Pour the mixture into the baking dish and top with the remaining cheese. Bake for 10 minutes until warmed through and the cheese has melted on top. Serve, garnished with additional sprigs of thyme.

Notes

To cook the chicken, place 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and shred.
