Method
Step 1: Prepare the Base
- Heat butter and oil in a large pot, then cook onion, celery, carrots, and garlic until soft.

Step 2: Build the Flavor
- Add chicken broth, herbs, salt, pepper, and bay leaf, then stir everything together gently.

Step 3: Simmer Slowly
- Let the broth simmer for ten minutes so the vegetables become tender, and flavors blend beautifully.

Step 4: Add Chicken
- Mix shredded chicken into the pot and cook for three more minutes.

Step 5: Cook the Noodles
- Add egg noodles and cook until soft, tender, and perfectly chewy.

Step 6: Finish and Serve
- Remove bay leaf, add lemon juice, taste, adjust seasoning, and serve hot.

Notes
For the best texture, cook noodles just until tender and avoid over-simmering.
