I make the soup and I make a pan of egg noodles and a pan of white rice, that way everybody has it with whichever they choose.I do not put my noodles or rice in the soup, I keep them on the side and just add to the bowl. I have a big old stock pot and I put in however much chicken fits, so I really can't say exactly how much that is. 8]

How To Make chicken soup

  • 1
    I clean my gizzards and put them in a pressure cooker and put enough water to cover them. I cook for about 1 hour, then add them and the water they cooked in to the pot you are going to cook the soup in.
  • 2
    add chicken pieces and enough water to cover the chicken in your soup pot.
  • 3
    add onions and garlic and simmer until chicken is just about done, remove chicken from pot with a slotted spoon. (skim gunk from soup as it cooks)
  • 4
    add everything else to pot and simmer while you remove the bones and skin from chicken. Add chicken back to pot and heat through . Serve over rice or noodles. and lots of buttered saltines on the side. I put a lot of chicken because otherwise they pick all the meat out and I'm left with vegtable soup. (you can add peas or green beans, or any other vegtables you like)
