Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 whole cut-up fryer chicken
2 whole carrots, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
1/2 whole medium onion, diced (optional)
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. turmeric
1/4 tsp. white pepper (more to taste)
1/4 tsp. ground thyme
2 tsp. parsley flakes
16 oz. frozen "homemade" egg noodles
3 tbsp. all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Cover chicken in 4 quarts water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Remove chicken from pot with a slotted spoon. With two forks, remove as much meat from the bones as you can, slightly shredding meat in the process. Return bones to broth and simmer on low, covered, for 45 minutes.
  • Remove bones from broth with a slotted spoon, making sure to get any small bones that might have detached.
  • Add the carrots and celery (and onions, if using) to the pot, followed by the herbs and spices. Stir to combine and simmer for ten minutes to meld flavors.
  • Increase heat and add frozen egg noodles and chicken. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Mix flour and a little water. Stir until smooth. Pour into soup, stir to combine, and simmer for another 5 minutes, or until broth thickens a bit. Test and adjust seasonings as needed.

Categories     Dinner

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large whole chicken, gizzards removed (about 5 ½ - 6 lbs.)
1 celery rib, cut into 4 large chunks
1 large carrot, cut into 4 large chunks
1 onion, peeled and cut into 4 large chunks
1 bay leaf
2 sprigs fresh thyme
3 quarts cool water (or just enough to barely cover the chicken)
1 ½ tablespoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 lb. uncooked egg noodles ((or other pasta of choice))
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Optional garnish: chopped fresh herbs such as parsley or thyme

Steps:

  • Place the chicken breast-side up in a 6-8 quart Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot. Arrange the celery, carrot, onion, bay leaf and thyme around the chicken. Add cool water to just barely cover the chicken. Sprinkle in the salt and pepper.
  • Cover the pot and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 1 - 1 ½ hours, or until the chicken is falling apart. Turn off the heat and let it rest in the broth for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken from the broth and shred the meat into medium-size pieces. Discard the skin and bones.
  • Strain the broth and return to the pot. Discard the vegetables and herbs.
  • Return chicken to the pot with the broth. Bring to a simmer; add the noodles. Cook for about 6-8 minutes for wide egg noodles, or until the pasta is al dente (cooked, but still slightly firm). Turn off the heat; stir in lemon juice. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.

MOM'S EASY CHICKEN & HOMEMADE NOODLES



Mom's Easy Chicken & Homemade Noodles image

I was browsing chicken & noodle recipes on Zaar, but there aren't many with homemade noodles & IMHO that's the best part. I am posting the current evolution of my mother's (my grandmother's) recipe before I start to forget it. The flour amounts are not specific because it's always different. I just add more as needed to keep the dough workable. Sometimes I use cans of herbed chicken broth or substitute seasoned salt for the regular salt. This is a recipe from memory & I am constantly making little changes to it, but it's always satisfying at the table. Comfort food at it's best. Simple, filling & especially good on a cold winter day. Don't let the length of instructions intimidate. This is very easy, I'm just very detailed. I hope you will give it a try.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
4 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2-4 cups flour
3 eggs
4 -5 tablespoons milk
salt & pepper
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup (or vary flavor by using cream of celery, onion, or mushroom soup in place of the chicken)
10 3/4 ounces water (optional, if needed)
4 -6 cups mashed potatoes (optional, for serving)

Steps:

  • In large stock pot, combine chicken, salt & water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover & simmer til chicken is fully cooked.
  • While chicken cooks, combine eggs & salt in mixing bowl (I use a stand mixer with dough hook attachment, but it can be mixed by hand with a fork) & beat eggs slightly. Gradually add flour & milk to eggs & continue mixing until the flour is incorporated & dough is no longer sticky to the touch. Slightly more or less flour may be necessary, depending on the size of your eggs.
  • When dough is ready, form into a ball & turn out onto a well floured surface. Knead by hand a few times, adding more flour if it gets sticky again. Pat into a round & then roll out into a large rectangle about 12x15 or so & 1/4 inch thick. Be sure to flip dough often, keeping it well floured so it doesn't stick.
  • Starting at a short end, use a pizza cutter to cut the dough into 1/4 inch wide (or smaller)strips. (To do the cutting with a sharp knife: flour the top of your rectangle, roll up jelly roll style & slice into 1/8 inch spirals.) When all strips are cut, unroll if needed & toss them with enough flour to keep them from sticking together. Spread noodles out in a single layer on your rolling surface & leave to dry a bit while you are finishing the chicken.
  • When chicken is cooked, remove to a cutting board, (discarding the water it was cooked in) & use two forks to shred it into bite-sized lengths.
  • Add the chicken broth to the stock pot & bring broth & water to a boil.
  • Add noodles & whatever flour is with them to the boiling pot.
  • Add the shredded chicken & stir gently. Reduce heat to low to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for about 10 minutes.
  • Add the cream of chicken soup & stir well. If this makes the mixture too thick, add enough of the optional water to make your desired consistency. we like it a bit stew-like, but still thin enough to look like gravy on mashed potatoes.
  • Simmer all for another 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until noodles are tender. Timing really depends on how thick your noodles are cut. We like them a little on the thick side. Serve over mashed potatoes.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven to cook the chicken and noodles. This will help prevent the food from burning.
  • Use fresh herbs and vegetables for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
  • Let the chicken cool slightly before shredding it. This will make it easier to shred and prevent it from falling apart.
  • If you want a thicker soup, add more noodles or vegetables. If you want a thinner soup, add more broth.
  • Season the soup to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.

Conclusion:

Baba's Homemade Chicken and Noodles is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it can be made in under an hour. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
