Steps:
- In a large pot over medium heat, combine chicken, celery and their tops, carrot, onion and its peel, and pepper. Pour broth over and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer until chicken is tender and falls from the bone, about 45 minutes.
- While chicken is cooking, make noodles. In a large bowl, combine eggs, water, oil, salt and enough of the flour to make a stiff dough.
- Strain chicken stock, reserving meat, celery and carrots. Pull meat from bones and return strained stock and meat, celery and carrots to pot. Bring to a boil. Make noodles by cutting dough from a broth-dipped spoon or using scissors or your fingers to make small, chickpea sized, noodles and dropping them in the boiling water. When the noodles rise to the surface they are done.

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.

Steps:
- For the stock, place chicken in a large stockpot and add water to cover. Bring to a boil, skim off foam, and add celery, onion, carrots and salt. Reduce heat and simmer for about 1 hour.
- Remove the chicken and set aside to cool. Once cooled enough to handle, remove the meat tearing into bite sized pieces and discard the bones and skin. Strain but reserve the broth, discarding the vegetables. Return the stock to the pot.
- For the stew, add the chopped onion, carrots and celery to the stock. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and add the chicken base, pepper, poultry seasoning and thyme. Simmer for 15 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms and noodles. Combine the evaporated milk and cornstarch to make a slurry; stir in. Bring up to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for another 15 minutes.
- Add the shredded chicken to the pot, simmer for another 5 to 10 minutes or until chicken is warmed through, noodles are tender and sauce is thickened.
- Taste and adjust salt as needed.
- May be left on a low simmer to reach desired thickness if stirred occasionally, which is what I usually do.
COUNTRY STYLE CHICKEN AND NOODLES
Steps:
- 1. Cook noodles according to package directions.
- 2. Meanwhile, in a deep skillet, heat olive oil and saute chicken until cooked. Remove from pan, set aside. (Skip this step if using pulled rotisserie chicken)
- 3. Return pan to stove and heat butter in pan, blend in flour with a wire whisk until smooth. Add broth and milk, stirring constantly until thickened. Add salt & pepper.
- 4. Add mushrooms, noodles and chicken to sauce, stir until well combined and warmed through.
- 5. Plate and top with Parmesan cheese and fresh chopped parsley.
COUNTRY STYLE NOODLES
Steps:
- Heat up vegetable oil in a wok until it is shimmering. Throw in fresh garlic and crushed Thai chile and cook until golden brown, about 30 seconds. Throw in the meat and cook, stirring continuously, until it is cooked medium-well, about 1 minute. Add the pickled garlic and then the egg; while the egg is still runny, add the noodles. Add the fish sauce followed by the palm sugar and cook, stirring, until the noodles are soft. Add the pickled garlic juice and cook, stirring, about 30 seconds maximum. Add green onion, allowing to cook for no more than 15 seconds. Remove from wok and place on a serving dish. Garnish with lime.
Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and nutrients to your dish. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, and potatoes.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked through but still tender. Overcooking will make it tough and dry.
- Use a good quality egg noodle. This will make a big difference in the flavor and texture of your dish. Look for egg noodles that are made with fresh eggs and that have a slightly chewy texture.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make chicken and noodles. Feel free to add your own favorite ingredients or to adjust the seasonings to your taste.
