10-Minute Chicken Noodle Soup

Dice the onion by removing the outer skins, cutting the onion into slices, then cutting slices into smaller pieces. Place in a small bowl for later.

If using fresh garlic, remove the outer skin and chop cloves into small pieces. Place in bowl with onion.

Roughly chop up the cooked chicken into small bite sized pieces and set aside in a small bowl for later.

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large saucepan. Wait until the oil sizzles then add the onion and garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add the mixed vegetables (e.g. peas and corn), dried Italian herbs, stock, and water. Stir all the ingredients together using a wooden spoon. Cover the saucepan with a lid and bring to the boil by increasing the heat.

Once boiling, add cooked chicken and noodles and stir uncovered, for 2-3 minutes, or until noodles are soft.

Distribute soup between bowls and sprinkle with pepper.
