Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup onion (diced)
  • 1 cup carrots (peeled & diced)
  • 1 cup celery (finely diced)
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 2 quarts chicken broth (low sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon chicken base (better than bouillon recommended)
  • 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 2 leaves bay leaves
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt (or to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
  • 4 cups egg noodles

Equipment

  • Large stockpot

Method
 

  1. In a large stockpot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add diced onions, carrots, celery, and minced garlic. Sauté for about five minutes until onions are translucent.
  2. Pour in the chicken broth and add the chicken base. Stir to combine.
  3. Add the boneless chicken breasts, thyme sprigs, bay leaves, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to maintain a gentle simmer for about 45 minutes.
  4. Remove bay leaves and thyme sprigs. Take out the chicken breasts, shred them with two forks, and return shredded chicken to the pot.
  5. Bring the soup back to a boil and add egg noodles. Cook for an additional 10 minutes until noodles are tender.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
