Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 8 cups chicken broth or stock
  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 6 oz egg noodles or your favorite small pasta noodles

Method
 

  1. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery, and sauté for 4 minutes.
  2. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in broth, chicken breast, salt, pepper, oregano, thyme, and bay leaves. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat.
  3. Cover the pot with the lid slightly askew and cook for about 15 minutes until the chicken is tender. Shred the chicken into the broth using two forks, adjusting the piece size to your preference.
  4. Bring the soup to a low boil and add egg noodles. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes until al dente. Serve warm with fresh parsley and your choice of bread or crackers.

Notes

Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Then you can reheat it on the stovetop or microwave. Keep in mind that the noodles will absorb some of the broth, especially when storing leftovers. So we usually add a little extra broth when we reheat leftovers.
Freezing: This soup freezes well, but we highly recommend freezing it without the noodles, as they can become mushy. Simply thaw the soup and add fresh noodles when reheating. You can freeze the soup for up to 3 months in an airtight container. 
Make Ahead: This soup is great for meal prep! Make a big batch and enjoy it throughout the week for quick lunches or dinners. Just wait to add the noodles until you’re ready to serve to keep them from getting soggy.
