Answer 2

My family enjoys this chicken noodle soup

1 whole chicken
1 large onion or 2 small
3 carrots
2 stalks celery
1/2 bunch of parsely (flat or curly)
4 TBS chicken bullion granules

Rough;ly chop up the veggies and put everything in a stock pot full of water and simmer 1.5 - 2 hours. Take out the chicken and cool. When the chicken is cool enough to handle (if I am in a hurry I will put it in the fridge or freezer for a little bit) pull apart into bite size pieces. Strain out the veggies. (My family does not like chunks of veggies in the soup, but if you want you can dice some of the cooked veggies up and put them back into the stock) Add chicken back in and add 1 or 2 boxes of chicken broth if more liquid is needed or wanted. Bring to a boil and add egg noodles. Cook to package directions.

Chef Caprial Pence has an absolutely amazing recipe for chicken soup one of her books...I forget which one. That recipe also ended up on a carton of chicken broth, might be Pacific brand.
All her recipes in all her books that I've ever tried are winners, and I've tried a lot. Worth checking out.
