Delicious golden chicken broth with root veggies and herbs.
Ingredients:
1.6kg whole chicken
2carrots, halved, thinly sliced
2onions, quartered
2bay leaves
2leeks (pale part only), thinly sliced
2parsnips, peeled, sliced
2celerystalks, thinly sliced
50g baby spinach leaves
170g thin driedegg noodles
40.00 ml flat-leaf parsley leaves
40.00 ml dill sprigs
Instructions:
Wash chicken and dry with paper towel. Place in a large stockpot and pour in 2 1/2L (10 cups) cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add carrot, onion, and bay leaves. Place a saucer on top to keep chicken submerged. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 30 minutes, skimming off any impurities. Cook until chicken is done.
Remove the cooked chicken from the pan and carefully slice off the breast fillets on both sides of the breast bone. Discard the skin and set aside the fillets.
Add the chicken carcass back to the pot along with the leek, parsnip, and celery. Season the mixture and cook for another 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Shred the tender chicken meat from the legs, thighs, and reserved breast fillets, discarding the skin.
Add the shredded chicken back to the pan along with the spinach leaves. Stir and cook for 5 minutes until everything is heated through.
Cook the noodles as instructed on the package, then drain.
Portion the noodles into individual bowls, pour the soup generously over them, and top with a sprinkle of fresh parsley and dill sprigs before serving.
