Step One

Warm the oil over medium high heat and then add the onion, carrots and celery  along with the turmeric, salt and pepper to a large stockpot. Sauté over medium heat for about 7 -8 minutes, or until the onions are soft and transparent. Add the garlic and cook and stir until aromatic, about one minute.

Step Two

Add the breasts to the pot along with the eight cups of water. Cover the pot, bring it to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for one hour.

Step Three

After an hour of simmering, remove the chicken from the pot. Using two forks, pull the meat from the bone and shred. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Step Four

Add the noodles to the pot, turn the heat up to high, and boil the noodles until tender (about 7 minutes). Return the shredded chicken to the pot. Taste and season again with salt and pepper if needed, and stir the parsley into the soup.

LOOK at this beautiful bowl of the soup below! We used the spiralizer to create carrot noodles. Using carrots instead of traditional noodles, means the soup is gluten free and you get even more veggies to count towards your 5 to 7 portions per day!
