Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Arrange the chicken thighs on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, roast for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  2. In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic, onions, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Shred the roasted chicken and add to the broth, letting it simmer for about 10 minutes.
  4. Stir in fresh herbs and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes.
  5. Add the noodles and cook according to package instructions until just tender, about 4-6 minutes.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with extra parsley or a squeeze of lemon.
