  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion (diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 3 medium carrots (peeled and sliced)
  • 2 celery stalks (sliced)

For the Soup:

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie or leftover)
  • 2 cups egg noodles (uncooked)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/4 teaspoon turmeric (optional, for color)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Saute Vegetables: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5–6 minutes until softened.
  2. Add Flour and Broth: Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and cook, stirring constantly, for 1–2 minutes. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil.
  3. Finish the Soup: Stir in the milk, heavy cream, salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, and turmeric if using. Add the egg noodles and cook for 8–10 minutes, or until tender. Stir in the cooked chicken and simmer for another 3–4 minutes until heated through.
  4. Season and Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • You can use half-and-half instead of milk and cream.

  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
