I prepped and simmered chicken before I went to work and then quickly reheated and cooked the noodles when I got home. It made for a nice quick dinner.
4-5 pieces of chicken thighs
2 carrotts
4 stalks of celery
1 onion
1/2 bunch of parsley
1 package of egg noodles
3 tablespoons of flour
1 tablespoon of chicken base (Optional)
1/4 teaspoon of red pepper
1 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
1/2 teaspoon of tumeric
1/2 teaspoon of thyme
Cover the chicken with four quarts of water in a large heavy pot. Simmer for 25ish min.
Remove chicken from broth and dice up and return to pot. While the chicken was simmering you could prep and the veggies.
Finely dice up an onion
Peel and dice up two carrots.
Dice up the celery
Remove stems from parsley and roughly chop
Add seasoning and veggies to pot with simmering chicken and simmer for 10 min
Cook noodles in simmer pot and whisk in flour and then in chopped parsley.
When the noodles are tender stir in a little half and half and lemon juice if desired.
