🧂 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
🌿 2 bay leaves
🐔 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon
🥣 2 cartons (32oz each) of chicken broth
🍜 3 cups noodles
🍋 Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions

1- Prepare the Vegetables:

Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, sliced carrots, and celery. Mix well and let the vegetables cook until they become soft and fragrant.

2- Season the Soup:

Once the vegetables are softened, season them with garlic powder, black pepper, turmeric, thyme, paprika, and salt. Stir in 2 bay leaves, chicken bouillon, and combine thoroughly to enhance the flavors.

3- Add Chicken and Broth:

Incorporate the shredded chicken into the pot, mixing until well-coated with the seasoned vegetables. Pour in the chicken broth and stir everything together.

4- Simmer the Soup:

Taste the mixture and adjust the salt if necessary. Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then cover and simmer for about 10 minutes.

5- Cook the Noodles:

Add the noodles to the pot and continue cooking for another 8 to 10 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and cooked through.

6- Finish with Lemon:

Once the noodles are cooked, squeeze the juice of one lemon over the soup to add a fresh and zesty flavor. Stir well and serve hot.
