Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium onion, peeled and chopped
- 2-3 large carrots, peeled and chopped
- 1 rib celery, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
- 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 64 oz (2 qts) low sodium chicken broth
- 2 cups gluten free egg noodles
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and black pepper
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for 2 minutes.
- To the pot add the carrots, celery and garlic. Cook the mixture together with the onions for 5 minutes, stirring often.
- Add the chicken thighs and chicken broth to the pot.
- Bring the soup to a boil over medium-high heat, then cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Simmer covered for 20 minutes.
- Remove the chicken from the soup, trim off any fat, and shred the meat with forks; set aside.
- Increase the heat to medium and add the noodles. Cook the noodles until al dente which should be 8-10 minutes.
- Add the chicken back to the soup along with the fresh chopped parsley, stir well.
- Add the salt and pepper and adjust as needed.
- Serve soup hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Choose a sturdy gluten free noodle that won't disintegrate into the hot broth.
- Cook noodles until al dente or just tender since gluten free pasta absorbs the liquid as it sits.
- Use a good quality chicken broth either homemade or low sodium store bought so you can adjust the seasonings.
- Add-ins: Peas, green beans or spinach
- Storage: Place leftover soup in an airtight container refrigerated for up to 4 days.
- Freezing: It is best to freeze without the noodles and add freshly cooked ones when reheating. Place in a freezer safe container or bag up to 3 months.
- Reheating: Place on stovetop or microwave until warmed through.
