Chicken Noodle Hold The Soup - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 -3 carrots, cut into matchsticks
4 -5 celery ribs, from the heart cut into matchsticks
2 small zucchini, cut into matchsticks
1 (10 ounce) box frozen peas, defrosted
salt
ground black pepper
1 rotisserie-cooked chicken, meat removed from bone and shredded
1 lb wide egg noodles
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped

Preparation

Bring a large pot of salted water over high heat for the egg noodles.
While the water is coming up to a boil, place a large skillet over medium-high heat with the olive oil.
Add the onion, carrot and celery to the pan, and cook until the veggies begin to get tender, 3-4 minutes.
Toss the zucchini and peas into the pan along with some salt and freshly ground black pepper, and cook another 2-3 minutes until all the veggies are tender.
While the veggies are cooking, drop the noodles into the boiling water and cook to al dente according to package directions.
Reserve a cup of the starchy cooking water, drain the noodles and return them to the pot they were cooked inches.
Add the butter and parsley to pot and give everything a good toss to melt the butter and coat the noodles.
Add the shredded chicken and a splash of the starchy pasta water to the pan with the veggies and cook until the chicken is heated through.
Turn the noodles out into a serving dish and top them with the chicken and veggie mixture and serve.
