Ingredients:

Directions:
Directions:
Set stove on high.
In large soup pot, add chicken, celery, onion, carrots, bay leave, salt and pepper, bouillon. Fill pot with water, 1" from top of pot. Cover with lid.

Bring soup to a strong boil. In order of make good soup, you need to really boil the chicken. After it is boiling really well, turn down the stove but the soup still has to be softly boiling,

Boil for at least 2 hrs or longer. Strain so that you have the broth in one pot and everything else in another bowl. Boil up some broad noodles (according to package directions).

Cut up the carrots, celery and chicken. I like to keep the vegetables & chicken separate from the broth and the noodles.

To serve, heat the soup really hot. Prepare soup bowls with the vegetables, chicken and noodles. Pour hot broth over top.

Chicken soup goes well with home baked bread.
