Chicken Soup Recipe
This chicken soup recipe is one of the first soups I ever learned to make. I started making this soup when I was away in college. I remember eating it for 3 days straight! It really goes a long way.
There is nothing better than eating homemade chicken soup. It is sooo soothing to your soul!
Ingredients
- 1 Whole Chicken, if soup is for a large family, or you can use chicken thighs if soup is for 1-4 people. I recommend using meat with a bone.

- 2-3 Medium Sized Carrots, Chopped
- Handful of Fideo, Vermicelli, or Egg Noodles

Directions
- *Wash and Clean the Whole Chicken, remove the neck, organs from the cavity. Dry with a paper towel.
- *Fill a dutch oven half way with water.
- *Place the whole chicken or parts in a dutch oven.
- *Boil the chicken for about 30 minutes, or until done.
- *Remove cooked chicken onto a plate. Let it cool.
- *In the meantime, if you want a clearer broth, strain the broth into another saucepan/ dutch oven.
- *Add the chopped celery and carrots. Cook on medium-low for about 10 minutes.
- *Add the handful of fideos, vermicelli, or egg noodles.
- *Cook until the fideos are soft.
