Chicken Noodle Soup

Ingredients:

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs

2 tbsp olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

3 medium carrots, sliced

2 stalks celery, sliced

8 cups (2 liters) chicken broth

2 bay leaves

1 tsp dried thyme (or 1 tbsp fresh thyme)

Salt and pepper to taste

2 cups egg noodles (or any noodle of your choice)

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Cook the Chicken:

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the pot and cook until browned on both sides (about 6-8 minutes). Remove and set aside.

2. Sauté the Vegetables:

In the same pot, add the diced onions, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

3. Simmer the Soup:

Pour in the chicken broth, add bay leaves, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil.

Lower the heat, add the chicken back into the pot, cover, and let it simmer for 20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

4. Shred the Chicken:

Remove the chicken from the pot, shred it using two forks, and return it to the soup.

5. Cook the Noodles:

Add the egg noodles to the pot and cook for an additional 6-8 minutes or until the noodles are tender.

6. Serve:

Adjust the seasoning if needed, and serve hot. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Enjoy your warm and hearty chicken noodle soup!
