Grandma Jiles Chicken Noodles Recipes

GRANDMA'S CHICKEN SOUP WITH HOMEMADE NOODLES

Steps:

• Bring chicken stock to a boil; cook chicken breasts at a boil until no longer pink in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove chicken, cool, and cut meat from bone; keep chicken stock at a low simmer.
• Mix flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt together using the dough hook attachment in the bowl of a stand mixer on Low; add eggs and water, 1 tablespoon at time, until dough holds together.
• Split dough in half. Roll 1 dough half on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut dough into noodles 2 to 3-inches long x 1/4-inch wide using a sharp knife dipped in flour or a fettuccine pasta cutter. Repeat with other dough half.
• Return chicken to the simmering stock; add noodles. Season stock with black pepper and 1 pinch salt. Cook soup until noodles are cooked through, 15 to 25 minutes.

GRANDMA'S HOMEMADE CHICKEN NOODLES

Steps:

• The chicken can be whole pieces or bite sized whatever you prefer. I like to cut chicken breast into bite sized pieces.
• In a large soup pot boil chicken in water or chicken broth. Add garlic, salt and pepper to taste.
• While chicken is boiling combine flour, salt and eggs into a large mixing bowl. Start with a 1/4 cup of milk and add more milk or flour to get a pie crust type consistency.
• Roll out dough on a floured surface as thin as you like remembering that the noodles will probably double in thickness when cooking (Thinner the better in my mind). Cut the noodles with a pizza or noodle cutter. I typically cut them into 1/2 inch by 5 inch pieces.
• If the chicken is finished cooking then add the noodles into the boiling broth and cook until done. (If they are not finished you will see a white center, the noodles turn yellow when cooked) Takes about 5 minutes to cook at the thickness that I roll the noodles.
• Add the worcestershire sauce and butter.
• Serve in a bowl or plate depending on if you want lots of broth or not and I recommend sprinkling parmesean cheese over the top when finished.

GRANDMA JEAN'S CHICKEN AND NOODLES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. When the butter begins to bubble, add the shallots, celery, mushrooms, carrots, and a pinch of salt, and cook until the vegetables are starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the flour, and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are coated, about 2 minutes. Gradually stir in the chicken stock. Bring the soup to a simmer, stirring frequently, and cook until the vegetables are tender and the soup has thickened slightly, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Generously salt the water, and cook the egg noodles until they are just tender, about 7 minutes (this will vary from brand to brand, so check the bag for an accurate cooking time). Drain the noodles in a colander, transfer them to a bowl, toss them with the vegetable oil to prevent sticking, and set them aside.
• Add the chicken slices to the soup pot, and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the half-and-half. Stir in the reserved noodles, the peas, and the parsley or dill, and simmer for another 5 minutes, until heated through. Season with salt and plenty of black pepper.
• This soup can be prepared a day in advance (just allow the dish to cool slightly after cooking, then cover and refrigerate).

Steps:

• Cut up chicken, place in pot, cover with water. Add salt and onion. Cook until it boils, turn down and simmer until tender (about an hour). Remove chicken and leave a little water on it.
• Beat eggs with fork, add salt and flour a little at a time until you can't stir it.
• Throw dough out on floured board. Knead. Roll to 1/8" thick. Cut long thin strips.
• Make sure chicken soup is boiling then add noodles - one at a time (so they don't stick). Add all noodles and keep barely boiling for about an hour. Remove bones from chicken. When noodles are finished, add deboned chicken to soup and serve.
