Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 cups egg noodles
  • 34 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • Juice of ½ lemon (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5-7 minutes until softened.
  2. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in chicken broth, add bay leaves and thyme. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer for 10 minutes.
  4. Stir in egg noodles and cook until just tender, about 6-8 minutes.
  5. Add shredded rotisserie chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Stir in lemon juice if desired.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Add noodles near the end of cooking to prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Stir in the shredded chicken only at the very end to keep it tender.
  • This recipe is flexible and can be made with leftover chicken.
  • For best results when freezing, omit noodles and add cooked noodles when reheating.
  • A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end adds brightness and balances the flavors.
