Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 whole chicken or bone-in pieces
  • 2 cups egg noodles
  • 2 carrots, diced

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken by rinsing it under cold water and seasoning with salt and pepper. Place in a large pot with enough water to cover.
  2. Bring the chicken to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer, skimming any foam for about 10 minutes.

  4. Remove the chicken from the pot; let it cool briefly before shredding the meat off the bones, discarding the skin.
  5. Add the shredded chicken back to the pot and bring the soup back to a gentle boil.
  6. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions, usually around 7-10 minutes, until al dente.
  7. Taste the soup and season with additional salt, pepper, and herbs as desired. Optionally, squeeze in lemon juice.
  8. Serve in bowls and garnish with fresh parsley.
