• 1 onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 cups egg noodles

1. Cook the onion, carrots and celery in a little oil until soft.
2. Add the garlic, thyme, broth and chicken and bring to a simmer.

Pin Tip

Cook noodles separately if you plan to store leftovers. They keep absorbing broth.

Food Safety

Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F, measured with a thermometer in the thickest part without touching bone. Wash hands, boards and utensils after handling raw chicken.
