Simple Chicken Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken rinsed and innards removed
  • 6 carrots chopped
  • 1 celery bunch stalks chopped, save leafy center
  • salted water

Instructions

  1. Rinse chicken and remove/discard bag of inner organs

  2. Place chicken in large soup pot and cover with cold water. Add in the salt and the leafy center of the celery bunch. Bring to a boil over high heat and skim off any froth. Lower to medium heat and let boil for 4 hours.

  3. Remove the chicken and celery from the broth. Debone the chicken and skim the broth to remove any small bits.

  4. Add in celery and carrots. Season broth as needed and add in the chicken. Let simmer for another 2 hours minimum. 

  5. Serve with noodle of your choice. We usually do wide egg noodles but anything will work, even rice!
