Ingredients

  • 8 ounces medium-size spiral pasta
  • 3 tablespoons vegan butter divided
  • 10 ounces vegan chicken strips
  • 1 cup baby carrots sliced
  • 1 cup celery diced
  • 1 cup yellow onion diced
  • 8 cups vegan chicken-style broth
  • 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

  • Cook the noodles according to the package directions for al dente consistency. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
  • Into a large soup pot over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter. When the butter is melted, add the chicken strips. Cook for 5 minutes, browning on both sides. Transfer the cooked chicken to a cutting board and roughly chop.
  • Using the same pot, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. When the butter is melted, add the carrots, celery, and onion. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly crisp-tender.
  • Stir in the chopped chicken, broth, poultry seasoning, basil, and oregano. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Stir in the cooked noodles and serve hot.

Notes

Make-Ahead Instructions: This soup can be made 1 to 2 days ahead. Store the soup base and the cooked noodles separately in the refrigerator. The noodles will absorb the broth and become soft if stored together. Combine when reheating.
