Ingredients
Method
In large saucepan, bring chicken stock and 3 cups (750 mL) water to boil. Add chicken, onion, celery, carrots, thyme, salt and pepper; reduce heat, cover and simmer until juices run clear when chicken is pierced, about 30 minutes. Skim off any foam. Let cool for 30 minutes. Refrigerate until cold.
Remove chicken and separate meat from bones; cube meat and return to broth. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight containers for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw in refrigerator, about 36 hours. Return soup to saucepan.)
Bring to simmer over medium-low heat. Add peas, corn and noodles; cover and cook until noodles are tender but firm, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley.
