How to Make CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP (sallye)
- Place chicken and water in large stock pot. Add celery, onion, carrots, salt & pepper, boullion, and poultry seasoning
Bring to boil, then turn down heat and simmer for 20 minutes (until chicken is tender) - Remove chicken from broth, shred into bite size pieces or cut into 1" cubes and return to pot
Resume cooking at low heat for approximately 10 minutes
Add water if needed to maintain level of 4 quarts - Turn heat up to medium high
When broth comes to a rolling boil, add the noodles and cook for about 10 minutes (until noodles are al-dente) stirring occasionally to keep noodles from sticking together
Add drained can of peas (optional) - Turn heat off and let set for about 5 minutes (noodles will continue to cook and soak up some of the stock, so see above - don't overcook them)
- Good served with cornbread, garlic toast or crackers.
