Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, peeled and diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup egg noodles
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Zest of 1/2 lemon
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in chicken broth. Add shredded cooked chicken, egg noodles, dried thyme, and oregano. Stir to combine.
  5. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until noodles are tender.
  6. Stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest. Taste and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper as needed.
  7. Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use homemade chicken broth.
  • If you don’t have cooked chicken, you can poach chicken breasts in the broth before adding other ingredients and then shred them.
  • Adjust the amount of lemon juice and zest to your preference.
