Heat the olive oil in a small pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, and celery. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes until the onion is translucent. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and water. Add the dried parsley, thyme, most of the salt, and the black pepper. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes to develop the flavor.
Add the diced chicken and egg noodles to the pot. Simmer for 5 to 7 minutes until the noodles are tender and the chicken is white throughout. Taste a noodle and cut into a chicken piece to ensure it is done. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the lemon juice. Taste the broth and add the remaining salt if needed. Ladle the soup into a large bowl and serve hot.
