I believe in Chicken Soup...

On my recent visit to Atlanta, my daughter Megan had bronchitis, strep and a sinus infection.  I sent her to bed, played with Damian and made soup.  I guess you never get too old to have your mom take care of you when you are sick...and homemade chicken soup is just one of those things that makes you feel better...and a little bit more loved :-)
 

Chicken Noodle Soup
1 chicken (or chicken pieces)
1 cup of chopped celery - about 3 stalks
1 yellow onion
1 cup of chopped carrots
1 package of Fettuccine noodle - uncooked
1 Tablespoon of Morton SeasonAll Salt
1 teaspoon Black Pepper

Fill a large stock pot with water (2 or 3 inches from the top)  - boil chicken (whole or equivelant of 2 breasts, 2 thighs & 2 drumsticks) - Use both white and dark meat for good flavor....about 45 minutes.

This liquid will be the chicken stock for your soup...so don't dump it out!  Remove chicken when done (almost falling off the bone).  I like to strain stock into a clean pot or bowl (get all the goobers out).

Pick your chicken (get all the skin and bones off) and you should have at least 3 cups of chicken pieces.  Set aside.

Chop celery, onion, and carrots - 1 cup of each... but a little more is ok too!  Put into your clear chicken stock (add some water if needed) and continue to cook on medium/high until veggies are tender.  Add  - 1 Tablespoon of McCormick SeasonAll salt and 1 tsp black pepper.  Season more if you like.

Add 2/3 box (or the whole box if your pot is big enough) of uncooked --broken in half--Fettuccine noodles.  I like to use these because they don't get soggy!  Stir and cook noodles into your soup (making sure they seperate) and then add all your chicken pieces.  Continue to cook all together until noodles are done. 

Get well soon!
