Stir in flour, salt, pepper, thyme, and oregano; cook for 2 minutes to eliminate raw flour taste.
Pour in chicken broth and add diced potato; bring to a boil for 3 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered for 25 minutes until potatoes are tender.
Add shredded chicken, half-and-half or milk, and uncooked noodles; cook for about 10 minutes until noodles are tender.
