Recipe Source: Best Chicken Recipes

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 medium onions, cut into medium dice
1 whole chicken (about 4 pounds), breast removed and split; remaining
chicken cut into 2-inch pieces
Salt
1 large carrot, peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 celery stalk, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
2 cups (3 ounces) hearty egg noodles
Ground black pepper
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley leaves

Directions:

Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large soup kettle. Add half of chopped onions and all
chicken pieces (reserve breast). Saute until chicken is no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce
heat to low, cover and simmer until chicken releases its juices, about 20 minutes. Increase
heat to high; add 2 quarts water along with whole chicken breast, 1 teaspoon salt and bay
leaves.

Bring to a simmer, then cover, reduce heat to low and barely simmer until chicken breast is
cooked and broth is rich and flavorful, 20 minutes longer. Remove chicken breast from kettle;
set aside. When cool enough to handle, remove skin from breast, then remove meat from
bones and shred into bite-size pieces; discard skin and bones. Strain broth into a large bowl
and discard any remaining chicken pieces and bones. Skim fat from broth and reserve 2
tablespoons. (Broth and meat can be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 days.) Return soup
kettle to medium-high heat.

Add reserved chicken fat. Add remaining onion, along with carrot and celery, Saute until
softened, about 5 minutes. Add thyme, broth and shredded chicken. Simmer until vegetables
are tender and flavors meld, 10 to 15 minutes. Add noodles and cook until just tender, about
5 minutes. Adjust seasonings, adding salt, if necessary, and pepper, stir in parsley and serve.
