Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 onion diced
- 4 celery stalks diced
- 4 carrots sliced
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh Rosemary chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups 2% milk
- 8 cups chicken broth
- 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breast
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons parsley chopped
Instructions
- In a large dutch oven over medium heat, melt the butter. Add onion, celery and carrots and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the onion is translucent and the vegetables are beginning to soften. Add garlic, rosemary and thyme and cook for 1 minute more, or until very fragrant. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the flour, stirring with a wooden spoon to evenly coat the vegetables. Add chicken stock, whisking to avoid lumps. Increase the heat to medium high and bring the liquid to a boil. Add chicken breasts, then reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside on a cutting board. Bring the soup back up to medium heat, and add egg noodles and milk. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8 minutes, or until noodles are tender.
- Shred the chicken with two forks. Add chicken back to the pot, along with fresh parsley. Stir everything to combine and serve.

Notes
- Tip: Use a hand or stand mixer to shred your chicken. Using two forks is great, but it can be a process. A mixer will have your chicken shredded and ready to go in under 30 seconds!
