1. Add seasonings to the chicken. In a large pot, heat 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp butter over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the chicken breasts for 3 to 5 minutes until golden on each side (they will finish cooking in the soup). Remove & set aside.

2. Reduce the heat to medium, add 2 tbsp of olive oil & 2 tbsp of butter, then add the onion, carrot and celery along with the veggie seasonings listed above. Sauté for 7-9 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for one more minute.

3. Add the chicken broth along with more salt & pepper, the chicken bouillon, diced potatoes, parmesan rind, bay leaf, and return the seared chicken.

4. Bring to a boil then simmer for 18-20 minutes.

5. Cook your egg noodles or pasta in salted water according to the package. Drain and set aside.

6. Remove the chicken and shred it (you can use two forks or an electric mixer).

7. Remove the bay leaf then add in the heavy cream, lemon juice, and fresh herbs. Add the shredded chicken back in and stir.

8. Add more of the chicken seasonings if needed.

9. Store the chicken soup in a separate container from the noodles.
