Make this easy stovetop beef noodle soup for a truly comforting weeknight dinner. You get tender beef chunks and noodles in a rich, savory broth that tastes better than takeout.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 pound wide egg noodles
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Season the beef cubes generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Remove the browned beef and set it aside.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
  4. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir constantly for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.
  6. Slowly whisk in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  7. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  8. Return the browned beef to the pot. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the beef is very tender.
  9. Increase the heat to medium and bring the soup back to a gentle boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package directions, usually 6 to 8 minutes, until they are tender.
  10. Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve this cozy winter soup recipe immediately.

Notes

  • For an even richer broth, sear the beef well to develop deep flavor before simmering.
  • You can make this a one pot beef noodle soup by adding the noodles directly to the simmering broth.
  • This soup tastes even better the next day, making it a great choice for family dinner meal prep.
