Equipment
- Dutch Oven
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 sprigs thyme
- 2 large carrots chopped into chunky coins
- 2 ribs celery chopped
- 1 shallot minced
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp pepper
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp flour
- 3 chicken thighs
- 6 cups low sodium chicken broth
- 2 ½ cups Egg noodles
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Sauté the olive oil, thyme, carrots, celery, spices in a dutch oven over medium heat until fragrant.
- Add the garlic, butter, and flour. Stir it until the butter melts and the vegetables are coated in the flour.
- Add the chicken thighs and 6 cups of low sodium chicken broth. Bring it to a simmer.
- Turn the heat down to medium-low, cover and stir occasionally for 30 minutes.
- Remove the chicken and thyme stems from the pot.
- Shred the chicken with two forks. Discard the chicken bones and thyme stems, then return the shredded chicken to the pot along with the egg noodles.
- Allow it to cook until the noodles are soft (about 10 minutes). Add the lemon juice. Give it a taste and season it to your liking with kosher salt (depending on how salty your broth is this will vary person to person).
Notes
Seasoning the soup will depend on your preferences and the saltiness of your broth. Give it a taste, and salt as needed. Don’t be afraid to give it a generous seasoning!
If you’re looking to add a salty flavor without adding a ton of salt, stir in some freshly grated parmesan cheese or add a dash of apple cider vinegar.
