stewDelicious Homemade Chicken Stew:

 (I made a recipe for chicken stew. It’s pretty easy, and a great comfort food.)

Ingredients:

  • Whole chicken
  • 1 bag (16 oz.) of baby carrots (cut in half, about 1 inch pieces)
  • 3 or 4 stalks of celery (chopped)
  • 4 to 5 small/medium potatoes (peeled & cubed)
  • chicken bouillon powder
  • onion salt
  • onion powder
  • garlic salt
  • minced onion (optional)
  • almost half of a 16 oz. bag of egg noodles

To make: (use at least a 5 quart pot for this recipe)

  1. Boil chicken (about 3 1/2-4 hours) until meat starts falling off bones.
  2. Drain chicken in strainer, SAVE BROTH! (Use strainer over large bowl or another large pot. Let chicken cool down a few minutes.)
  3. Add carrots and celery to broth, continue boiling (med/high heat) as you separate chicken meat from the bones.
  4. Add chicken to carrots and celery in broth.
  5. Add 4 tsp. chicken bouillon, 1 tsp. onion powder, 2 tsp. onion salt, 2 tsp. garlic salt, 2 tsp. minced onion.
  6. Add potatoes and 1 cup of water. Let cook on medium heat for about 20-30 minutes, or until vegetables are soft, stir occasionally.
  7. Add 3 cups water, 4 tsp. chicken bouillon, 1 tsp. onion salt and egg noodles. (Add parsley if desired.)
  8. Continue cooking on medium/low heat until noodles are soft, stir occasionally.
  9. Keep covered on warm until stew begins to thicken. *Stew will be thicker than soup*

(Hope you enjoy your homemade chicken stew!)
