Steps:

• Place the chicken in a large stock pot, cover with water and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer about 30 to 45 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
• Skim impurities from the broth as needed.
• Remove chicken parts from liquid and set aside to cool.
• When cool enough to handle, remove the skin and bones.
• Pull meat apart.
• (At this point you can use whatever meat you like. I use the legs, thighs and wings in the soup and save the breast meat for other uses; but you need to simmer the whole chicken to get enough flavor in the broth).
• Add the carrot, celery flakes, greek seasonings, chicken bouillon and 4 cups water to the broth.
• Simmer for about 10 minutes.
• Adjust seasonings to taste, add more water if you think you need it to cook the noodles.
• Add the chicken.
• Bring the broth to a boil and add the noodles (more or less depending on taste).
• Simmer rapidly until noodles are cooked through, about 7- 10 minutes.
• Serve hot.
• (Note: Leftovers are good, but the noodles absorb the liquid so you may have to add more broth).

Steps:

• To cook the chicken breast, wrap each breast tightly in foil and bake on cookie sheet until no longer pink. No water or seasonings needed, the foil keeps the chicken's natural juices "trapped" so it cooks moist and tender. Chop into pieces of whatever size you desire.
• In large stockpot, add broth and start cooking on high heat. Chop veggies to whatever size of pieces you desire. I keep mine on the larger size. Add to broth.
• Add all seasonings to broth, including bay leaf, cover and bring to a rolling boil.
• When boiling, add noodles and chicken to broth, lower heat to med and bring back to a boil, uncovered.
• Boil for approx 25 min or until noodles are al dente.
• Lower heat to get a good simmer. Simmer 15-20 min uncovered. Give a good stir, remove bay leaf and serve.
• Optional Additions:.
• 1/4 tsp celery seed.
• omit onion powder and instead add 1/4c chopped onion.
• Note: If you don't have fresh parsley you can use 1T dried parsley instead.
• Prep time is an estimate and does not include cooking time for the chicken breasts.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large soup pot over medium heat. Stir in carrot, onion, celery, salt, and fresh thyme. Stir in chicken fat; cook and stir until the onions turn soft and translucent, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Stir in roasted chicken broth and bring to a boil.
• Season to taste with salt, if necessary; stir in egg noodles and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in cooked chicken breast meat and simmer until heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and oil, and boil for 8 minutes, or until tender. Drain, and rinse under cool running water.
• In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, combine broth, salt, and poultry seasoning. Bring to a boil. Stir in celery and onion. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water together until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Gradually add to soup, stirring constantly. Stir in noodles and chicken, and heat through.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil until shimmering over medium heat in a large soup pot. Add the onion, carrots, celery, and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cooking, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are very soft, about 15 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the stock and bring to a boil.
• MAKE AHEAD: Do not add the noodles or parsley. Cool and refrigerate the soup in an airtight container for four days, or in the freezer for up to two months. Reheat on the stove and add the noodles and parsley just before serving.
• Add the noodles and cook 6 minutes, then add the chicken and cook about 2 minutes more, until the noodles are cooked through and the chicken is warmed through.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper, then stir in the parsley.
• Serve topped with Parmesan.
• Enjoy!
