Cut the chicken into pieces and place it in a pot with half a bay leaf and two cloves of garlic.

Add some pepper and a little water to the pot.

Cook the chicken on low heat for 45 to 50 minutes until it is tender enough to shred.

Once cooked, shred the chicken with your hands and set it aside to cool.

In another pot, heat a small amount of oil and sauté chopped onion and carrot until softened (note: creator only uses onion due to lack of carrots).

Boil two eggs for about 15 minutes.

Add the shredded chicken and ham to the broth and let it rest.

Once the onion is sautéed, blend it to create a smooth mixture.

Add the shredded chicken and ham back into the pot along with the blended onion.

Chop the boiled eggs and add them to the mixture along with the noodles.

Cook the noodles according to the package instructions (about 3 minutes), adding the eggs in the last 2 minutes of cooking.
