"Original" Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup

This weekend I decided to make my own homemade Chicken Noodle Soup. I think it's probably hard to make this type of soup completely original since it's been made so many times. But, it seems like a good comfort food and a great meal for a cold winter day. So, I made some this weekend from scratch and without any assistance of another recipe. It was tasty!! 

"Original" Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup

1 tablespoon of olive oil
2 tablespoons of onion, finely chopped (I prefer to use shallots)
1 teaspoon of garlic, minced
2 tablespoos of fresh rosemary, chopped
1-2 tablespoons of ginger, zested (alter amount based on preference)
4 cups chicken broth
3 boneless, skinless chicken breast (already cooked and shredded)
1 cup carrots, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 pound of egg noodles

Heat the oil on medium heat, add the onion and garlic. Stir and let cook for a minute. Add the rosemary and ginger. Stir and let cook for another minute or two. (By now, your kitchen should smell amazing)!  Add the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, add the chicken and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for about 7 minutes. Add the chopped vegetables, cover and let simmer for 15-20 minutes. While that is cooking, start boiling the water and cooking your egg noodles. Once the noodles are done, spoon some into a bowl. The soup should be ready to pour on top of the noodles. Enjoy!
