This recipe came from It is amazing. I add noodles to it, although I think it'd work well with rice, too. Ingredients:
4 quarts cold water |
1 chicken, 4-5 pounds and quartered |
2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed |
1 medium onion |
2 medium carrots |
2 stalks celery, chopped |
4 -5 parsley stems |
1 bay leaf |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Put water into large soup pot and add all ingredients. Slowly bring to boil over medium heat, then immediately reduce heat and simmer for 3 hours. Use a spoon to frequently skim the soup. Remove from heat and cool. Skim fat from surface and strain the soup. Wash soup pot and return stock to pot.
2. Throw away the bay leaf and parsley. Mash the carrots, celery and garlic. Stir them into the soup. Remove the skin and bones from the chicken, chop the meat and add to the soup Heat and season to taste with additional salt and pepper.
