Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, diced into bite-sized pieces

4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

1 cup water

2 cups egg noodles

1 cup carrots, sliced into thin rounds

1 cup celery, diced into small pieces

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp dried thyme

1 tsp dried parsley

1/2 tsp black pepper

Salt to taste

2 tbsp olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Sauté Aromatics: In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the finely chopped onion, minced garlic, sliced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté the mixture for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.

    Cook Chicken: Add the diced chicken breast to the pot, stirring well to combine with the sautéed vegetables. Allow the chicken to cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is no longer pink and lightly browned on the outside.

      Add Liquids: Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and water, stirring to combine. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low to maintain a gentle simmer.

        Season Soup: Stir in the dried thyme, dried parsley, black pepper, and salt to taste. Let the soup simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.

          Add Noodles: With the soup gently boiling, add the egg noodles to the pot. Cook the noodles according to the package instructions, typically around 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender yet al dente.

            Taste & Adjust: After the noodles are cooked, take a moment to taste the soup. Adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if desired.

              Serve: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish each serving with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley for a touch of color and flavor. Enjoy this cozy bowl of goodness while it’s piping hot!
