Heat olive oil in a large pot. Add onions carrots and celery and cook until softened. Add chicken stock, chicken (skin and bones intact), salt and pepper , parsley and bay leaf to pot and bring to boil
Cook until chicken is tender enough to shred with a fork. Remove chicken from pot and allow to cool. Meanwhile, bring soup back to boil while you remove skin and bones from chicken and tear or shred the breast meat into small pieces. Return chicken meat to pot and add pasta, cooking till noodles are done. Serve immediately.
