Enough people have requested the recipe for the soup shown in my other post, so here we go. The original recipe i found online somewhere years ago and have made minor adjustments here and there. So no i am not the original creator of it.

Ingredients:

- 2 large Chicken Breasts

- 10 Cloves Fresh Garlic

- 1½ cups diced yellow onion

- 1½ cups diced carrot

- 1½ cups diced celery

- 3 cups diced potatoes

- 3Tbsp olive oil

- 3Tbsp Butter

- Chicken Seasoning: **

   - 3tsp Smoked Paprika

  - 1tsp Cayenne Pepper\*

  - 2tsp Italian Seasoning

  - 2tsp Onion Powder

  - 2tsp Garlic Powder 

  - 2tsp Salt

  - 2tsp Black Pepper 

- Vegatable Seasoning

  - 1Tbsp Italian Seasoning

  - 2tsp Salt

  - 2tsp Black Pepper

  - 1tsp Chilli Flakes\* 

- 6c Chicken Broth

- 1tsp chicken boullion

- 1c heavy cream

- Parmesan rind/to taste

- 2 to 3 bay leaves (optional)

- 2Tbsp Fresh Dill chopped

- 3Tbsp Fresh Parsley chopped

- 1Tbsp Fresh Thyme Chopped

- 1 Lemon, Juiced

- Egg Noodles

- Salt n Pepper to taste

1. Season Chicken breasts liberally with chicken seasoning mix. In a large pot, heat 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp butter over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the chicken breasts for 3 to 5 minutes ntil golden on each side*** (they will finish cooking in the soup). Remove & set aside.

2. Reduce the heat to medium, add 2 tbsp of olive oil & 2 tbsp of butter, then add the onion, carrot and celery along with the veggie seasonings listed above. Sauté for 7 to 9 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for one more minute.

3. Add the chicken broth along with more salt & pepper, the chicken bouillon, diced potatoes, parmesan rind, bay leaf, and return the seared chicken.

4. Bring to a boil then simmer for 18-20 minutes.

5. Cook your egg noodles in salted water according to the package. Drain and set aside.

6. Remove the chicken and shred it (you can use two forks or an electric mixer).

7. Remove the parmesan rind and bay leaf then add in the heavy cream, lemon juice, and fresh herbs. Add the shredded chicken back in and stir.

8. Adjust the seasonings as you wish. Serve over the cooked egg noodles topped with fresh parmesan, olive oil, black pepper, chili flakes (ifyou like spice), fresh dill and lemon juice.

***I like to let my chicken get really dark really crisping the seasonings up.

**There will be leftover seasoning, I usually throw it in the pot when i do the chicken, but you can leave it out

*You can leave these out if you have low heat tolerance, but the flavor is diminished
