Mimi’s Chicken Noodle Soup

Updated at: Thu, 17 Aug 2023 05:06:40 GMT

Step 1

Boil a while chicken in water for several hours with cut up carrots, onion, celery, salt, pepper, and a bay leaf.

Step 2

Keep adding water, since some of the water evaporates as it's cooking. The water that you're cooking the chicken in becomes the broth. Once the chicken is cooked thoroughly, the bones are falling apart, and the broth looks like broth (not water), strain and separate everything.

Step 3

It's up to you, what you use/keep and what you get rid of. Mimi only kept the carrots and white meat chicken (and broth obviously), she didn't keep the celery or onions. I usually puree the onions and celery and add them back to the broth, but I don't like eating them in chunks in the soup.

Step 4

Let the broth sit overnight so the fat rises to the top. The next day, scrape it off and throw it out.

Step 5

Bring the broth back to a boil with the chicken/carrot/veggie puree, and then add the noodles.
