Chunky Chicken Noodle Soup for two is hearty and delicious and made in just one pan. I love the flavors of the poultry seasoning and thyme and the big chunky carrots, onion and celery in this soup.

How to make easy Chicken Noodle Soup
Dice the onion, carrots, celery, and chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Heat the butter in a large saucepan on medium heat.
Add the onion, carrots, celery, and raw chicken. Cook for about 3 – 5 minutes stirring occasionally. If you’re using precooked chicken or turkey add it with the egg noodles below.
Pour in the broth and bring to a boil. Boil for about 15 minutes if the vegetables are raw. If you use canned veggies, go to the next step once you reach the boiling point.
To the broth, add the egg noodles, black pepper, salt, poultry seasoning, thyme, bay leaf, and garlic.
Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes until noodles are cooked.
Garnish with parsley if desired.

I found this recipes very simple to make. I enjoyed the additions of poultry seasoning. I think it sets this recipe apart from others. I didn't use the noodles because I had leftover rice I wanted to use up. I will make again.
