Big Ole Bill's Chicken Corn Noodle Soup image

Chicken Noodle soup was always my favorite. I took my mothers old recipe ( Her idea of seasoning was salt and pepper LOL) and I tweaked it to what we have here. One thing I learned was to cook the noodles, remove them and let them cool before putting them back in so they don't absorb all the broth. I hope you enjoy this, making...

Number Of Ingredients 24

4-5 lb chicken
5 clove garlic
2 carrots
2 ribs of celery
1 onion
1 tsp black peppercorns
2 tsp coarse sea salt
2 sprig(s) fresh sage
2 sprig(s) fresh thyme
2 sprig(s) fresh oregano
4 fresh basil leaves
6-8 c water to cover
1 (16oz.) bag(s) egg noodles
TO FINISH SOUP
2 Tbsp olive oil
2-3 carrots
4 ribs of celery
1 large onion
3 clove garlic
1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
2 can(s) whole kernelcorn
1 can(s) creamed corn
1 (32oz.) box chicken stock
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Cut cloves of garlic in half crosswise. Cut carrots, celery and onion into big chunks and put in large pot with chicken
  • 2. Add all spices and herbs
  • 3. Add enough water to cover chicken
  • 4. Cover pot and bring to a boil over high heat
  • 5. Reduce heat to medium and cook 1 1/2 hours
  • 6. Remove chicken and let cool. Once cool take off bone and cut into chunks or shred
  • 7. Remove vegetables and herbs and discard. I used the carrots for dog treats!
  • 8. Cook the noodles in the broth and remove from pot saving broth
  • 9. Remove broth from pot into a container. Now at this point I refrigerated chicken, noodles and broth until the next day but you don't have to. If you do skim off the solidified fat on top of broth before using
  • 10. Heat olive oil in large pot over medium-low heat
  • 11. Add carrots, celery, onions and garlic. Cook stirring occasionally until tender, about 10 minutes
  • 12. Add the reserved broth and the box of chicken stock to pot
  • 13. Stir in the poultry seasoning and bring to a boil
  • 14. Stir in the chicken and the corn using the juice from 1 can of the whole kernel corn
  • 15. Stir in the noodles, heat until warm and top off with fresh parsley if desired
  • 16. Serve and enjoy!
