A comforting and hearty chicken noodle soup made with simple ingredients, perfect for cozy meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or unsalted butter
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 carrots, sliced
  • 3 celery ribs, sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 to 1.5 pounds chicken thighs or breasts (boneless, skinless), or 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme or 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 6 to 8 ounces egg noodles (wide or medium)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice (optional, to taste)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes until soft. Stir in garlic for 30 seconds.
  2. Pour in chicken broth. Add thyme and bay leaves. If using raw chicken, add it now.
  3. Bring to a boil, then lower to a gentle simmer. Cook for 12 to 18 minutes until chicken is cooked through (165°F). Remove chicken, shred, and set aside. Skim any foam if needed.
  4. Return soup to a boil. Add noodles and cook until just tender, about 6 to 8 minutes (check package).
  5. Return shredded chicken to the pot. Stir in parsley and lemon juice if using. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove bay leaves and serve hot.

Notes

Store noodles separate from broth for better texture. Can be frozen without noodles for up to 3 months.
