Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

3 medium carrots, sliced into rounds

2 stalks celery, sliced

8 cups low-sodium chicken broth

2 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 bay leaf

2 cups egg noodles

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-5 minutes, or until it becomes translucent and fragrant. Next, stir in the minced garlic, sliced carrots, and celery. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften.

    Add Broth and Chicken: Carefully pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and increase the heat to bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Once boiling, add the shredded rotisserie chicken, followed by the dried thyme, dried oregano, and bay leaf. Season the broth with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

      Cook the Noodles: Lower the heat to a gentle simmer and cover the pot. Let the soup cook for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Afterward, add the egg noodles to the pot and cook according to the package instructions, usually around 7-10 minutes, or until the noodles are tender but still al dente.

        Finalize the Soup: After cooking the noodles, taste the soup and adjust the seasonings if needed. Remember to remove the bay leaf before serving! Stir in the freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and flavor.

          Serve: Ladle the warm soup into bowls, ensuring each serving has a good mixture of noodles, vegetables, and chicken. For an extra touch, sprinkle additional chopped parsley on top as a garnish and serve hot.
