Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken thighs or drumsticks with a pinch of salt and pepper, then add them to the pot. Sear for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
Dice the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the carrots and celery into thin rounds. Peel and cube the potatoes into bite-sized pieces.
In the same pot, add the onion and garlic, cooking for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
Stir in the carrots, celery, and potatoes, and sauté for an additional 4-5 minutes to soften slightly.
Pour in the chicken broth, then add the seared chicken back to the pot. Add the bay leaves, thyme, salt, and ground black pepper.
Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and let the soup cook for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
Remove the cooked chicken from the pot and let it cool for a few minutes. Shred the meat off the bones and discard any skin or bones. Return the shredded chicken to the soup.
Add the egg noodles to the pot and simmer for an additional 6-8 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.
Stir in the chopped parsley and squeeze in the juice of one lemon for a bright, fresh finish.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed. Serve hot and enjoy!
