Ingredients
  

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

3 medium carrots, sliced

2 stalks celery, sliced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 bay leaf

6 cups low-sodium chicken broth

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie works well)

2 cups egg noodles

3 large eggs

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Sauté the Vegetables: In a large stockpot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

    Add Carrots and Celery: Add the sliced carrots and celery to the pot. Sauté for another 5 minutes until they begin to soften.

      Seasoning: Sprinkle in the dried thyme, oregano, and add the bay leaf. Stir well to combine the spices with the vegetables.

        Pour in Broth: Carefully add the chicken broth to the pot, bringing the mixture to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

          Add Chicken and Noodles: Stir in the shredded chicken and then add the egg noodles. Continue to simmer for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the noodles are cooked al dente.

            Prepare Egg Ribbons: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and lemon juice. Gently pour the egg mixture into the simmering soup, using a fork to stir continuously to create delicate egg ribbons.

              Season to Taste: Remove the bay leaf and taste the soup. Season with salt and pepper as needed.

                Garnish and Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls, garnishing each with freshly chopped parsley. Serve hot and enjoy the comforting warmth!
