Chicken soup

I’ve kind of made this recipe up over the years, but the Kluski noodles (if you can find them) make the soup.  Katie at Kitchen Stewardship has a great tutorial on making your own chicken stock.   It’s fabulous and I use it all the time–go check her out!  This would work great with leftover turkey, too!

Ingredients:

  • 2-3 c. leftover chicken
  • up to 6 c. chicken stock, amount varies on strength of stock.
  • 1-2 tsp. Better Than Boullion, chicken flavor
  • 1 large onion, chopped fine
  • 3 stalks celery, sliced
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tsp. parsley
  • 1/2 tsp. thyme, sage, or basil
  • 2 tsp. basil
  • 2 tsp. oregano

Directions:

In a large pot (~6 qt), place chicken, celery, carrots, onions, parsley, thyme, bay leaves, chicken stock and Better Than Boullion.   Bring to boiling and reduce heat.   Simmer for 2 hours.

Add basil & oregano.  Simmer for another 1/2 hour.  Salt to taste.

Add 1/2 lb of cooked Kluski noodles, if desired.
