2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

3 garlic cloves, minced

2 medium carrots, cut diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices

2 celery ribs, halved lengthwise, and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices

4 thyme sprigs, fresh

1 bay leaf

2 qt chicken stock

8 oz wide egg noodles, dried

1 ½ cups chicken, shredded, cooked

Kosher salt, to taste

Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1 handful flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped, fresh

Place a soup pot over medium heat and coat with oil. 

Add the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, thyme and bay leaf. 

Cook and stir for about 6 minutes, until the vegetables are softened but not browned.

Boil water in a separate pot and cook noodles according to package instructions. When slightly less than al dente, drain and set aside.

Add the chicken stock to the vegetables and bring to a boil.

Mix in the noodles and chicken. Continue to simmer for another couple of minutes to heat through.

Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
