Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp. Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp. Butter
  • 1 Onion, chopped
  • 3 Large Carrots, sliced
  • 3 Celery Ribs, chopped
  • 3 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 8 cups Chicken Stock
  • Juice of 3 Lemons
  • 8 Thyme Sprigs, stems removed
  • 2 Bay Leaves
  • 1 tbsp. Turmeric
  • 1 tbsp. Chicken Boullion
  • 1 tsp. each Salt + Pepper
  • 1.5 lbs. Chicken Thighs
  • 8 oz. Dry Pasta Noodles
  • Fresh Parsley, for garnish
Instructions
  1. Add the olive oil and butter to a large stockpot over medium-high heat with the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Sauté for 6 - 8 minutes, or until onions have softened.
  2. Add the chicken stock, lemon juice, thyme, bay leaves, and chicken bouillon to the stockpot. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper, taste, and adjust if necessary.
  3. Add the chicken thighs to the stockpot and bring to a boil. Then reduce to a simmer for 45 - 50 minutes, or until chicken is fall-apart tender.
  4. Remove the chicken from the stockpot, shred, and return to the pot. Bring liquid back to a boil and add the noodles. Cook 1 minute less than what the box recommends for al dente.
  5. Discard the bay leaves and garnish with fresh parsley.
