Sasha's Chicken Noodle Sunday Soup

My version of a classic, made from scratch.

Ingredients:

1 chicken breast

1 tbsp olive oil

1 yellow onion, diced

3 medium carrots, chopped

1 celery stalk, chopped

1 tsp poultry seasoning

3/4 c corn kernels, canned or frozen

3/4 c uncooked noodles

Salt/pepper

Fresh herbs for garnish

Place the chicken in a medium soup pot and fill with just enough water to cover the chicken. Cover with lid and bring to a boil. Drain the water and fill the pot with new water, about 5 cups. Season with 1 tbsp salt, cover with lid and bring to boil again. Then turn heat down to simmer, crack lid and cook for 45 min. (Skim off any foam that might appear).Then turn heat off and take chicken out. When chicken is cool enough to handle, chop or shred it and set aside.

Then: heat the oil in a pan on medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery, a pinch of salt and pepper, and the poultry seasoning. Sauté for about 6 min, stirring occasionally. Add mixture to chicken broth and bring to a boil. Then simmer for 15 min, uncovered. Add noodles, corn and chicken. Simmer until noodles are cooked through, about 5 min. Re-season if necessary and garnish.
