Ingredients

  • 3 chicken breasts
  • 3 quarts water
  • 2 cups carrots
  • 12 cup onion
  • 3 tablespoons better than bouillon chicken base
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 12 cups flour
  • salt
  • pepper

Method

  • Cut chicken into small bite sized pieces.
  • Add water and chicken to soup pot.
  • Bring to a simmer.
  • While chicken is simmering, add onions.
  • I use a chopper to finely chip mine.
  • Some people like the onions thicker.
  • Add more or less onion for taste.
  • While those are still simmering, peel and cut carrots.
  • Add to simmer.
  • Add soup base, salt and pepper to the level of taste preferred.
  • Combine flour and eggs to a good noodle consistency.
  • I use 3 eggs and add flour until the consistency I want is there.
  • Spread dough out on counter with flour to about 1/4 inch thickness.
  • Use pizza cutter to cut noodles to small pieces about 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch.
  • Add those into the simmer.
  • Simmer for about an additional 30 minutes.
  • This recipe keeps well in the refrigerator and tastes better the next day in my opinion.
