Home made chicken noodle soup!

first sorry about no photo.. lol lazy today and completely forgot until i sat down do to this! you don't want to see the left over piece of celery in the bowl do you? so this time i added celery to it, this is the first time because i normally do not like celery in my food, but now i see why, its the flavor. It added something more to the broth.

first i made home made chicken stock but before i started that i just used the big can of it from the store :) Ill have to make a post for the chicken broth and link it.

you can use either a chicken carcass, or even raw chicken legs or what ever part of the chicken you were able to get your hands on.

chicken soup:
what you will need:

chicken! cooked, raw.. what ever. I like to either use the carcass of a already used chicken OR like 6 chicken legs /shrug im weird this way.
3-5 carrots, peeled and chopped into bite size pieces .. all depends on how much carrots you like :) go with 4 if you need spacifecs.
2 celery cut into small pieces
garlic 4 cloves
1/2 onion
salt
pepper

what to do:

Now get a large pot OR crock pot ( my fav )
Now put in the chicken, garlic and cut up onion in pot
Now add enought water to cover and over about 2 in, unless its a carcass then just cover
now bring to a boil and simmer for 4-6 hrs ( i like to put it in the crock pot over night )
Now get a bowl , strainer and a towel or cheese cloth
Now put the bowl in the sink and the drainer over it and the towel in the strainer and poor you pan of chicken in it to drain the clear broth into the bowel and catch the rest in the towel
Now wash your pan out really fast of any lose crap and put the now clean broth back in the pan
Now the fun part, wait for the chicken to cool and dissect it! save as much meat as you can and discard the rest.
Now this is preference on my part but i put the chicken in the fridge until an hr before serving so that it dose not all brake down in the soup. I tried this the last two times and it works nicely, i add it with the noodles. If you think that is stupid :) please put the chicken in now!
Now add your carrot and celery
Now add salt and pepper
Now cover and WALK AWAY!
Now 2-6 hrs have passed depending on when you are serving dinner
Now taste broth and re season if needed
Now add the chicken if not in already and the noodles
Now wait 30-40 min and eat!
