Soup Ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded rotisserie chicken works great
  • 8 cups chicken broth use low-sodium if you plan to salt later
  • 2 medium carrots, sliced
  • 2 stalks celery, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups egg noodles

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, sliced carrots, and sliced celery and sauté until the vegetables soften and the onion becomes translucent, about 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Pour in 8 cups chicken broth and increase heat to bring the pot to a gentle boil.
  4. Once boiling, add 2 cups egg noodles and cook according to the package directions (usually 6–8 minutes) until al dente, stirring occasionally.
