Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp dried rosemary
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 3 cups egg noodles
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Place chicken breasts, chicken broth, carrots, celery, onion, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper into a 6-quart slow cooker.
- Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and easily shredded.
- Remove the chicken from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.
- Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker.
- Add the egg noodles to the slow cooker. Increase the heat to high if it’s not already there.
- Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Ladle into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, you can sauté the carrots, celery, and onion in a little olive oil before adding them to the slow cooker.
- If you prefer a thicker soup, you can add a cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp cold water) during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Leftover soup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- You can use chicken thighs instead of breasts for a more succulent chicken.
