Equipment

  • Large soup pot or Dutch oven
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Wooden spoon
  • Ladle
  • Strainer (optional, for cleaning broth)
  • Measuring cups and spoons.
  • Small skillet (if you want to lightly saute vegetables first)

Ingredients
  

For the Soup Base

  • 2 pounds bone-in chicken pieces thighs or drumsticks work best
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 3 celery stalks chopped
  • 3 large carrots sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 10 cups water or low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 bay leaf
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Noodles and Finishing Touches

  • 2 to 2.5 cups wide egg noodles or any pasta of your choice
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • Lemon wedges optional, but lovely
  • Extra olive oil for drizzling

Instructions
 

Step 1: Build the Broth

  • In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and carrot. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes until they begin to soften and release their aroma. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  • Add your chicken pieces and pour in water or broth. Add thyme, parsley, bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil.
  • Reduce heat and let it simmer for about 45 to 50 minutes until the chicken becomes tender and the broth turns rich.

Step 2: Remove and Shred the Chicken

  • Take the chicken pieces out using tongs and place them on a plate. Let them cool a little before shredding. Remove bones and shred the meat into bite-sized pieces.

Step 3: Cook the Noodles

  • Add the egg noodles to the soup and cook according to package instructions. Two minutes before the noodles finish cooking, add the shredded chicken back to the pot.

Step 4: Taste and Adjust

  • Taste the broth. Add more salt, pepper, or herbs if needed. Remove the bay leaf.

Step 5: Serve

  • Ladle the soup into bowls. Top with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon if you want a brighter flavor.
