Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by heating 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 diced onion, 2 sliced carrots, and 2 sliced celery stalks. Sauté for 5-6 minutes until softened.
  2. Stir in 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 teaspoon of dried thyme. Sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in 6 cups of low-sodium chicken broth. Bring to a gentle boil. Carefully add 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
  4. Remove chicken from the pot, shred into bite-sized pieces, and return to the pot. Stir gently.
  5. Add 2 cups of egg noodles. Cook uncovered for 8-10 minutes until al dente.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley. Serve hot.
