The best chicken soup recipe!

All homemade chicken noodle soup recipes are good, but I like this one best because it uses lots of vegetables and my favorite sea salt.

The rotisserie chicken breast gives this chicken soup a deeper flavor. Be sure to taste the soup before you season it. I recommend Maldon sea salt, because it has a wonderful flavor and you don't need to use too much of it.

Chicken Noodle Soup
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
4 cups water
1 large onion, diced
3 celery ribs, chopped
1 cup sliced carrots
3/4 cup sliced parsnips
6 oz. medium egg noodles
1-1/2 cups cooked Rotisserie chicken breast, shredded
salt and pepper to taste
Bring chicken broth and water to a boil in a large stockpot or dutch oven. Add onion, celery, carrots and parsnips. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, 15-20 minutes. Add egg noodles and allow to simmer 15 more minutes or until noodles are cooked. Add chicken and heat 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serves 8.
