LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Remove excess fat from chicken. In Dutch oven or stock pot, place chicken, giblets (except liver) and neck. Add remaining chicken and broth ingredients; heat to boiling. Skim foam from broth; reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer about 45 minutes or until juice of chicken is no longer pink when centers of thickest pieces are cut.
  • 2 Remove chicken from broth. Cool chicken about 10 minutes or just until cool enough to handle. Strain broth through cheesecloth-lined strainer; discard vegetables. Remove skin and bones from chicken. Cut chicken into 1/2-inch pieces. Skim and discard fat from broth. Use immediately, or cover and refrigerate broth and chicken in separate containers up to 24 hours or freeze for future use.
  • 3 Add enough water to broth to measure 5 cups. In Dutch oven, heat broth, sliced carrots, sliced celery, chopped onion and bouillon granules to boiling. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer about 15 minutes or until carrots are tender.
  • 4 Stir in noodles and chicken. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low; simmer uncovered 7 to 10 minutes or until noodles are tender, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with parsley.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Start with 3 cups canned chicken broth and 3 cups cut-up cooked chicken or turkey instead of making the chicken and broth.

Leave nothing to waste. Three to 3 1/2 pounds of chicken necks, backs and giblets (except liver) can also be used to make broth.

I have been making this recipe for almost 30 years. It is a family favorite. The recipe is expanded slightly from the Betty Crocker Cookbook that was reprinted edition in 1982. I triple the recipes and freeze it in pyrex contains. It tastes great even after being frozen.
