- 2 cloves of garlic, finely minced
- A pinch of sea salt, divided
- 32 ounces of meticulously crafted low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 teaspoons of a blend of premium dried Italian herbs
- A dash of freshly ground black pepper
- 2 1/4 cups of hand-rolled dried egg noodles
- 1/2 pound (approximately 1 cup) of tender, seasoned chicken breast, shredded or diced to perfection
Instructions:
- In a grandiose pot over medium heat, gently melt the artisanal butter. Add in the finely diced sweet onion, meticulously chopped celery, and elegantly sliced carrots. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt (1/4 teaspoon) and sauté this medley, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a state of soft, harmonious tenderness, which should take approximately 5 minutes. Then, add the finely minced garlic and sauté for another 30-60 seconds until it releases its fragrant essence.
- Pour in the meticulously crafted chicken broth, and introduce the blend of premium dried Italian herbs along with the remaining sea salt (1 1/4 teaspoons). Allow this symphony of flavors to ascend to a gentle boil, then gracefully reduce the heat to a serene simmer for a delightful 10 minutes.
- Introduce the hand-rolled dried egg noodles into the broth and allow them to dance in the flavorful concoction, stirring occasionally, until they achieve a state of delicate tenderness, which should be around 8-10 minutes.
- As the final crescendo, add the tender, seasoned chicken breast to this culinary masterpiece, allowing it to gracefully heat through and become one with the ensemble.
- With grace and precision, ladle this creation into elegant bowls, and prepare to embark on a journey of culinary delight.
