Ingredients
Chicken Noodle Soup
3boneless, skinless, chicken breastscooked and shredded. I often use 5-6 cooked boneless, skinless chicken thighs in place of chicken breasts or shredded rotisserie chicken
2tablespoons good olive oil or butter
24ounces Reames Frozen Egg Noodles
1yellow oniondiced
1cupcelerydiced
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1teaspoon dried oregano leaves
8-10cupschicken broth
1tablespoon flour (for making thickening slurry with water)
12 ounces package frozen baby peas and carrots thawed
1splash heavy creamoptional
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley, or substitute 1 tsp. dried parsley optional
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepperto taste
1 batch of your favorite mashed potatoes optional
Instructions
In a large Dutch oven (or any large soup pot) over medium heat, add the oil.
2 tablespoons good olive oil or butter
When the oil is nicely hot, add the onions, celery, turmeric, and oregano, cooking a few minutes until the vegetables have softened and are beginning to turn golden brown, reducing the heat as they cook, if needed. If the vegetables begin to dry out a bit, add a splash of chicken broth and continue to cook to desired doneness.
