Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. Butter
- 1 Onion, finely chopped
- 2 Carrots, diced
- 2 Celery stalks, diced
- 3 Cloves garlic, minced
- 6 Cups turkey or chicken broth
- 2 Cups shredded cooked turkey
- 1 Cup Frozen Egg noodles
- 1 Cup frozen peas
- 1 Cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, diced carrots, and diced celery. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 7-10 minutes.
-
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
-
Pour in the turkey or chicken broth and add the shredded cooked turkey. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for about 10-15 minutes to let the flavors meld.
-
Stir in the frozen egg noodles and frozen peas. Continue to simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the noodles are tender. Since these noodles take a bit longer to cook, adding them later ensures they’re perfectly done without becoming mushy.
-
Add the dried thyme and dried oregano, stirring to combine. Allow the soup to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to let the herbs infuse their flavors.
-
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream, stirring well to combine. This step adds creaminess without curdling if the heat is kept low.
-
Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting as needed to enhance the flavors.
-
Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley for a touch of color and freshness. Enjoy!
