Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 large sweet onion diced
  • 16 garlic cloves minced
  • 3 large carrots peeled and diced
  • 3 celery ribs diced
  • 3 cartons of chicken broth
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 tablespoons ground turmeric
  • 6 tablespoons ginger freshly grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon each salt and freshly ground black pepper or to taste
  • 1 ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • 5 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups large wide egg noodles curly ones
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves chopped
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions

  • Melt unsalted butter in a large Dutch oven or stockpot over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Next add in grated ginger and ground turmeric. Saute for 1 minute.
  • Whisk in 2 cartons of the chicken broth, thyme, bay leaves and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add chicken and bring to boil; reduce heat and simmer on medium low, covered, until the chicken is cooked through, about 30-40 minutes.
  • Remove chicken and let cool before shredding.
  • Add the chicken to a large deep bowl and use a hand mixer on low speed to carefully break apart the chicken into shreds. Continue until your chicken is evenly shredded.
  • Stir in cooked, shredded chicken, egg noodles and remaining 1 carton of chicken broth back to pot and cook until tender, about 7-8 minutes.
  • Remove from heat; remove the bay leaf, stir in parsley and lemon juice.
  • Serve immediately.
