Instructions
Prepare the Broth: Begin by bringing the chicken broth to a simmer in a large saucepan over medium heat. The broth forms the base of your soup, so it’s important to start with a flavorful, high-quality chicken broth. If you prefer a richer flavor, you can use homemade broth, but store-bought works just as well for this recipe.
Cook the Chicken: Once the broth is simmering, add the boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the pot, cutting them into bite-sized pieces. Cook the chicken for about 10 minutes, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Stir occasionally to ensure the chicken cooks evenly. The chicken will absorb the flavors of the broth and begin to break into smaller pieces, creating a hearty texture.
Add Vegetables: After the chicken is cooked, add the carrots, onion, and celery to the pot. These vegetables add sweetness and depth to the soup. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes or until the vegetables are soft and tender. The carrots and celery should be slightly softened but still retain a bit of their bite.
Cook the Noodles: Once the vegetables have softened, add the egg noodles to the pot. Stir well to make sure the noodles are evenly distributed in the broth. Let the noodles cook for 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender and fully cooked. Be careful not to overcook the noodles, as they can become mushy.
Season the Soup: After the noodles are tender, season the soup with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and chopped parsley. The seasonings enhance the natural flavors of the soup, giving it a savory, well-rounded taste. Adjust the seasonings to your liking for the perfect balance of flavors.
Serve: Once the soup is fully cooked and seasoned, ladle it into bowls. Garnish with additional parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy the comforting, homemade flavors!
