Never-Fail Chicken Noodle Soup

I created this recipe for my 5 children. They loved canned soup, but the sodium content is far too high. They all love this soup. It’s hearty enough for a satisfying meal, yet light enough to be part of an overall healthy eating plan.

Step: 1

Combine water, chicken, whole onion, and rosemary in a large stockpot; bring to a rolling boil and cook until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove stockpot from heat and allow chicken to cool until easily handled, about 15 minutes.

Step: 2

Remove chicken and onion from stockpot. Remove chicken meat from bones and chop or shred meat; discard carcass and skin. Chop onion if desired. Return chicken meat and onion to stockpot with water.

Step: 3

Mix carrots, celery, garlic, and sea salt with the chicken mixture; bring to a boil and cook until carrots and celery are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; add egg noodles and cook until noodles are cooked through but firm to the bite, about 5 minutes. Add spinach to soup and cook until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.

The name of “stew” can process to 2 time a food and a make dishes method. Stewing makes not fast cooking chunks of meat, raw fruit or beans in a flavorful water based . It’s same as to braising, but it does have a few notable differences. The raw animal vested is chopped into smaller pieces instead of being cooked all of it , and the water based material completely covers the essential in a stew as different to a braise’s halfway full . When meat or raw fruit are cooked using this method, the resulting dish is called stew.

Stew has a perception for making a rib-sticking meal that warms you up on a freezing , winter day. It’s true ; a bowl of classic beef stew can make warming featured food , but stew’s cozy factor goes way beyond preserving you from the chill . It’s all about those soft and chunks of food and vegetables, swimming in a thick, ultra-rich gravy. The more they come together creates the greatest comfort food, no matter the weather.
