Chicken Soup Recipe
This is a home made and hearty chicken soup with noodles.
Like with all recipes this one specifies egg noodles, but use your favorite
type or pasta or shape.
I'm one of those people that hates finding bones in my food. I will just
stop eating it if i find one so i am
very careful about deboning the chicken.
Ingredients:
1 Tablespoon vegetable oil
2 medium onions, diced
1 whole chicken (about 4 pounds), breast removed and split; remaining
chicken cut into 2-inch pieces
1 large carrot, peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 celery stalk, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
2 cups (3 ounces) hearty egg noodles
Salt and Ground black pepper
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley leaves
Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large soup pot. Add half of chopped
onions and all chicken pieces (reserve breast). Sauté until chicken is no
longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until
chicken releases its juices, about 20 minutes.
Increase heat to high; add 2 quarts water along with whole chicken breast,
1 teaspoon salt and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer, then cover, reduce heat
to low and barely simmer until chicken breast is cooked and broth is rich
and flavorful, 20 minutes longer.
Remove chicken breast from pot; set aside. When cool enough to handle,
remove skin from breast, then remove meat from bones and shred into
bite-size pieces; discard skin and bones. Strain broth into a large bowl
and discard any remaining chicken pieces and bones.
Skim fat from broth and reserve 2 tablespoons.
Return soup pot to medium-high heat. Add reserved chicken fat. Add
remaining onion, along with carrot and celery. Sauté until softened, about
5 minutes. Add thyme, broth and shredded chicken. Simmer until vegetables
are tender and flavors meld, 10 to 15 minutes.
Add noodles and cook until just tender, about 6 minutes. Adjust seasonings,
adding salt, if necessary, and pepper, stir in parsley and serve.
