1
Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery, and cook until softened, about 6 minutes.
2
Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
3
Pour in chicken broth and add chicken breasts, bay leaves, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.
4
Remove chicken, let cool slightly, then shred with two forks.
5
Bring the soup back to a simmer and add egg noodles. Cook until tender, 6-8 minutes.

Return shredded chicken to the pot and simmer 2-3 minutes to heat through. Discard bay leaves.
7
