Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces chicken breasts, cooked and shredded Rotisserie or poached work great.
  • 4 cups chicken broth Low-sodium if you plan to salt later.
  • 1 cup noodles Egg noodles for a richer bite, rice noodles for a lighter soup.
  • 2 tablespoons ginger, minced Fresh is best for brightness.
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 piece onion, diced
  • 2 pieces carrots, sliced thinly
  • 1 piece celery stalk, diced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the diced onion, minced ginger, and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion starts to soften, about 2–3 minutes.
  3. Add the sliced carrots and diced celery. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 more minutes.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and bring the pot to a boil.
  5. Add the noodles and cook them according to the package instructions, stirring occasionally so they don’t stick.
  6. Stir in the shredded chicken and let it warm through for 2–3 minutes.
  7. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
  8. Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For texture contrast, add a handful of chopped green onions or a squeeze of lemon. Cool leftovers quickly and store in the fridge for up to 3–4 days. To freeze, remove noodles first. Reheat soup gently to 165°F (74°C) before serving.
