Ingredients
  • 1 onion
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 3 carrots
  • 1 leek
  • ½ small red chilli
  • 1 small sweet potato, peeled and diced
  • 2 celery sticks, diced
  • salt
  • 1 stalk of fresh thyme
  • 2 litres of chicken stock
  • 1 cup of egg noodles
  • 2 chicken fillets, diced into small pieces
Instructions
  1. Saute 1 onion and 1 clove of garlic in the olive oil until soft. I always add the onion first as it takes longer to soften.
  2. Add the chicken and gently cook through
  3. Evenly dice the carrots, leek, small red chilli (if you like), sweet potato and 2 celery stalks and then add them to the pot too. Season with salt.
  4. Add one large stalk of fresh thyme and then cover with 8 cups of chicken stock.
  5. Bring to the boil and cook gently for ten minutes.
  6. Add 1 cup of fresh egg noodles. I sometimes add more as this is the bit my kids love. But beware the noodles can expand and take over! :-)
  7. Cook for 5-10 minutes or until noodles are soft.
  8. Now it is time to scoop out the thyme and replace it with 3 tablespoons of chopped parsley.
  9. Taste test and ensure everything is cooked and seasoned to perfection.
  10. Scoop into bowls.
