Chicken Alphabet Soup
A simple and quick way to make Chicken Alphabet Soup using rotisserie chicken, pasta, carrots, onions and celery. We found Alphabet pasta in Amish country and I had to buy it because I haven’t had it since I was a kid. Since my grandkids are still sheltering in place with us, due to Covid, I thought it was the perfect time to make Alphabet Soup.
Ingredients
In a large pot over medium high heat, melt the butter and
add the diced vegetables. Sauté for about 5 minutes or
until the vegetables start to get tender, stirring frequently.
Add the chicken broth, salt, pepper and
poultry seasoning then bring to a boil.
Add the pasta and boil until desired doneness.
Remove from the heat and add the chicken.
Let sit covered for 10 minutes then serve.

What a great childhood memory, though our alphabet soup came from Campbell’s… it was such fun to search for the letters!
Oh yes and we all did search back then. However, my grandkids could have cared less but that’s OK because I spelled their names for them! Haha
Looks delicious! Homemade soup is the best 🙂
Thank you I agree!
I’ve really been enjoying all these recipes. Can’t wait to try this one!
It was very good and any pasta will work. Thank you so much!
great, I’m going to make this today and hope I can find the alpha pasta somewhere
You can use any pasta but the alphabets makes it fun.
I love this, reminds me of my Mom, she loved soup. This would be fun for the grandkids! Thanks Diane! C
Thanks Cheryl!
It’s snowing heavily over here today. Thay bowl of soup would be wonderful right now. Enjoy them with your grandkids!
Thank you and stay warm!
Happy New Year, dear Diane, thank you for the recipes and friendship 🙂
You are so welcome! Have a happy, safe and prosperous 2021!
Thank you very much madam for the great recipe.Wish you a prosperous New Year.🌹👍🙏
Thank you Francis the same to you my friend!
Most welcome madam.🌹👍🙏
Now that is a soup that would bring a smile to your face with just one taste.
Well it did my husband and me, the grandkids weren’t impressed! Lol
What a fun recipe, Diane! I hadn’t thought about alphabet pasta in years.
I hadn’t either Janet until we found it in Amish country. I’m not even sure the grocery stores sell it. Thank you!
Delicious I love it.
Thanks Helen!
The ultimate comfort food! My husband and I came across a photo in his phone the other day. It was from March 2020 and our second granddaughter had just been born during COVID. We were eating chicken alphabet soup when we got a text from our son letting us know about her birth; we couldn’t see her for months because of the virus. The photo on my husband’s phone was the baby’s name spelled out using the letters from chicken alphabet soup: C O L E T T E 🌟 👶🏼 😷
Awwwwww that is sweet! I bet that was so special when you finally did get to see her. There is no greater joy than being a grandparent! Thank you Nancy for sharing that special memory with me.
I love making homemade chicken noodle soup, but I never thought of adding poultry seasoning to the broth. I will add it to my soup next time. Happy New Year.😊👣
I love the flavor Georgetta but I use half of what other people use. Start with 1/2 tsp, taste it and see if you want more. Happy New Year!
Thanks Diane!😊👣
I made chicken noodle soup today and added the poultry seasoning. It enhanced the soup. Thanks for the tip.😊😊👣
Wonderful I’m glad you liked it. Another tip is use “Better Than Bouillon” in place of chicken broth unless you make your own. It is salty so don’t add any salt until you taste it. They make Beef, Chicken and Vegetable.
Thank you! I will get some today. I ended up giving the entire pot of soup to my youngest daughter. She contracted COVID-19. She has body aches, is tired and chills. So I sent the soup to her. She loved it, says it was the only thing she could eat.
Please keep her in your prayers. Thanks.
Oh no! I hope she recovers fast. I’m glad she enjoyed your soup, that was nice of you. She will be in my prayers.
Thank you for the prayers🙏👣
Sure to cure your ills if you were sick, or perfect for a cold Winter night.
Absolutely Linda! Lol
Spells yum!!
Hahaha I can always count on you for a good laugh. Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Okay so I am having a fantasy about a large cup of this, some yummy crackers, a ginger ale and curling up with a good book!
I love the way you think!!!!
I love this recipe! 🤗 Yummy! FYI You can find the alphabet pasta in most grocery stores it is made by Ronzoni and it’s called Alphabets No. 51. Really looking forward to trying this and getting cozy with a book! Thank you so much! 🙋♀️💫✨
Thank you and enjoy the book!
Thank you!
I believe the Amish food is the most organic of all.
Yes and that’s why it tastes SO good!
Thank you Ninny’s Nest and have a wonderful weekend!
