Simple Chicken Noodle Soup

 

Fixins

1 Whole Chicken

1 Bunch of celery sliced

1 16 oz. bag of sliced carrots

1 8 oz. jar of  Better than Chicken Bouillon

1/4 cup of basil

1/4 cup of parsley

2 tsp. thyme

2 bay leaves

1 16 oz. package of wide egg noodles

 Black pepper to taste (keep in mind the chicken bouillon has enough salt in it)

Your Concoction

In a large pot fill with water enough to cover chicken. Bring it to a boil and then lower heat to medium high. Continue boiling chicken for 2 hours turning chicken over halfway through.

Remove chicken from the pot to a platter to cool. Be careful not to burn yourself.

Add water to the pot as you prefer for consistency. 6 cups perhaps.

Add all the remaining ingredients except for the noodles.

Lower the heat to low/high or medium. Cover and continue cooking until vegetables are done to your liking stirring your love into the pot now and again. 1 hour maybe.

Once the chicken has cooled debone the chicken.

Once vegetables are done remove lid and bring to a boil. Add water as needed.

Add egg noodles and cook until done. 

Turn heat down to simmer. Add the deboned chicken and simmer for 10 minutes.

Done! Enjoy with cornbread.

For a faster version use 3 lbs. of cubed chicken breast instead of whole chicken.

ENJOY! It cures what ails ya!
