Step 1: Sauté the Vegetables
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
Step 2: Build the Soup Base
Add the chicken broth, thyme, parsley, and bay leaf to the pot.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low.
Step 3: Simmer the Soup
Stir in the shredded chicken.
Cover and simmer for 15–20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 4: Cook the Noodles
Add the egg noodles to the pot and cook uncovered for 6–8 minutes, or until tender.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Step 5: Serve
Remove the bay leaf before serving.
Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy with crusty bread or crackers.
