Lady & Bug ask for Nana's Noodle Soup every time they want something comforting. At first I had no idea what this was and kept making my version of Chicken Noodle Soup, but they were never satisfied, then I happened to have Nana's version one day and I understood...it's all about the noodles and the surprising Anise!
Here's my attempt at Nana Ladybug's Noodle Soup, it's probably not the way Nana makes hers, but Lady & Bug are happy with it!
Nana's Noodle Soup
1 Tbsp Butter or Olive Oil
1 Chicken Breast, cooked & diced very small
1/2 Onion, diced very small
1 clove Garlic, minced
4 cups Chicken Stock
2 cups Water
4 cups Cooked Spaghetti, Chow Mein, or German Noodles crunched into spoon sized pieces

2 Anise Seed Stars (or 1/2 tsp anise seed)
Heat oil or butter in large saucepan. Add chicken, onion and garlic and cook until onion becomes translucent. Add Chicken stock and water and anise. Bring to a boil (remove anise stars if used). Add pasta, heat through, and serve hot.
So many noodles with a slight anise flavour, so comforting and so yummy.
