1 whole roasting chicken


8 ozs. of kluski noodles


1 bundle celery stalks, chopped


1 bag of carrots, peeled and chopped


3 16 oz. cans of chicken broth





Roast a whole chicken and save the drippings- the best chicken flavor comes from there. Refrigerate if not using immediately. (If the drippings set up like gelatin in the fridge, you've got the really good stuff)





Debone and cube the meat, set aside. Refrigerate if not using immediately.





In a pot, add chicken broth, chopped celery and carrots. Bring to a boil and cook until veggies are softened. Add chicken meat and roast drippings.





Heat until simmering. Serve in a bowl with crackers or float a baguette slice with garlic butter on top of the soup.

Classic Chicken Soup recipe:








Ingredients (serves 6)





* 1 x 1.4kg (size 14) chicken


* 2 large brown onions, finely chopped


* 2 cups loosely packed fresh continental parsley leaves


* 4 garlic cloves, crushed


* 60mls (1/4 cup) fresh lemon juice


* 2 tbs soy sauce


* 5 celery sticks, cut into lcm pieces


* 5 medium carrots, cut into lcm pieces


* 2 medium tomatoes, halved


* Salt %26amp; ground black pepper, to taste


* 1.5L (6 cups) water





Method





1. Rinse the inside of the chicken. Remove the tail and neck, and as much skin as possible from the chicken.


2. Combine the onions, parsley, garlic, lemon juice and soy sauce in a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 5-8 minutes or until the onions are soft. Add the chicken, celery, carrots and tomatoes and season with pepper. Add the water and bring to the boil.


3. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 1 hour or until the chicken is tender and comes away from the bones easily.


4. Remove from heat, cool for 10 minutes and place the soup in the fridge to chill overnight. (This allows the fat to rise to the surface and set.)


5. Next day, remove the soup from the fridge and use a large metal spoon to remove the layer of solidified fat from the surface.


6. Remove the chicken from the soup and place in a large bowl. Use your fingers to remove the meat from the bones and shred into pieces. Discard the bones. Return the chicken meat to the soup.


7. Bring the soup to the boil over medium heat and simmer until the chicken and vegetables are heated through. Remove the soup from the heat and skim a piece of paper towel over the surface to absorb any excess fat.


8. Season with salt and ladle the soup into deep soup bowls. Sprinkle with pepper and serve.

....variations on a theme?......penne pasta (like BBs)....carrots and celery add a flavor(and I don't normally like cooked veggies)....onions,dried red chile peppers,or hot sauce .....butter (in moderation).....cream of chicken soup,breast meat cut up,boiled first and not overcooked....parsley?.....tomatoes diced...(not too many)......
