Instructions

Place rotisserie chickens with their juices in a large stockpot. Cover completely with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the chickens and let them cool. Remove the chicken meat from the bones and cut it into small, bite-sized pieces.
Strain the chicken stock, if necessary, into a separate container; set it aside.
In the same stockpot, combine the onions and butter over medium heat. Cook and stir the onions until they become translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another 5 minutes. Then, stir in the carrots and celery. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are almost tender, approximately 15 minutes. Stir in the corn, parsley, and pepper.
Pour the strained chicken stock back into the stockpot and bring the mixture to a boil. Cook until the carrots are tender, about 6 to 7 minutes. Add the noodles and cook until they begin to soften but remain firm to the bite, around 5 to 6 minutes.
In a separate small bowl, mix the water and cornstarch together. Reduce the heat to medium. Slowly stir the cornstarch slurry into the soup, adding a little at a time, until the soup reaches your desired thickness. Add the shredded chicken to the soup and heat it through, about 5 minutes.
