Ingredients

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
3/4 cup yellow onions, chopped
1 cup carrots, sliced
1 cup celery, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more, to taste
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, plus more, to taste
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
2 cups chicken, cooked and chopped
1 cup half-and-half
4 cups long egg noodles

Directions

Step 1 -In a large Dutch oven or pot over medium heat, melt the butter.

Step 2 -Add the onions, the carrots, the celery, and the garlic and cook, while stirring occasionally, until the veggies have softened, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 3 -Add the flour, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, 1/2 teaspoon of the black pepper, the thyme, and the oregano to the vegetable mixture and cook, while stirring, until the raw flour smell disappears, about 2 minutes.

Step 4 -Add the chicken broth and the potatoes to the Dutch oven and stir gently to combine.

Step 5 -Bring the soup mixture to a boil.

Step 6 -Boil the soup mixture for 3 minutes, then reduce the heat to medium-low.

Step 7 -Partially cover the Dutch oven and simmer it until the potatoes are very tender and the soup mixture thickens slightly, about 25 minutes.

Step 8 -Add the chicken, the half-and-half, and the noodles to the soup mixture and cook, while stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender, about 10 minutes.

Step 9 -Taste the soup mixture for seasoning and add the extra salt and the extra black pepper, as needed.

Step 10 -Serve.
