Chicken Macaroni Sopas is a rich chicken noodle soup dish that I really enjoy having during cold weather, or even on an ordinary day — usually in the mid afternoon. I have had chicken macaroni sopas ever since I was a kid. This soup has been my favorite; I remember having this every afternoon as some sort of snack.

Filipino Chicken Macaroni Sopas

I used to have chicken macaroni sopas with chicken liver in it. If you have not tried this soup dish yet, it might sound different. However, that version is the real deal. Chicken liver improves the taste of chicken macaroni sopas; it makes this soup dish more appetizing and enjoyable.

This chicken macaroni sopas recipe does not use chicken liver — rather chopped ham is added enhance the flavor. This chicken sopas version is simple, rich, and very tasty. I’m sure that you will love it.

    Hi Vanjo! I have always loved your recipes! We recently moved in Melbourne, and I do not know how to cook before but thanks to technology, I just need to search for the recipe I want plus the word PINOY then several results come up and I always, ALWAYS choose to be directed to your site. Thanks heaps! I feel like I now know how to cook thanks to your simple yet very detailed instructions. Good job! Continue helping and inspiring Pinoys all over the world!

    God bless and Mabuhay ka!

    Cheers,
    Katrina Ramirez

    I don’t know how to cook, but I told myself why not? So I searched for a filipino recipe to follow and this is the first website that I tried and worked really good. Napaiyak ako nung first time ko itry ung sinigang kasi ang sarap ng kinalabasan ? Mahirap kasi pag nasa ibang bansa tapos di marunong mag luto. So far nagaya ko na ung recipe na sinigang baboy/hipon,pinakbet,pancit bihon,ginisang cabbage,nilagang baboy.at lahat un masarap 🙂 ngaun itatry q ito iluto mamaya ☺️
