Grandma Myrtles Chicken And Noodles Recipes

GRANDMA'S CHICKEN AND NOODLES

Steps:

• Use German/Amish-style egg noodles for best results.
• Boil chicken until the meat falls off the bone.
• Debone and cut it up into tiny pieces.
• Put mean back into water, boiling, and add the egg noodles.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Boil until noodles grown in size and are soft, and all water is absorbed or boiled off.

CHICKEN AND SLIDERS

Steps:

• Wash chicken and place in large pot. Cover with water and add chopped vegetables, bay leaves, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 2 hours or until meat comes away easily from the bone. Remove chicken from broth and strain liquid. Reserve the broth and discard all vegetables.
• When chicken is cool remove meat from the bones and all skin, keeping the chicken meat in reasonably large pieces.
• To make the noodles(sliders): Beat the egg with some of the cooled broth, measure out the flour, work the egg mixture into the flour adding broth as required until the dough forms a ball. Knead the ball for a few minutes. Roll out the dough on a floured surface. Cut the dough into strips about 1 1/2 inches wide and 3 inches long. Don't worry if they are irregular in shape. Leave any excess flour on the noodles.
• Bring the reserved broth to a rapid boil, add the noodles and let them boil for about 5 minutes. Reduce heat, add cut up chicken and simmer until the broth is very thick like gravy (add a little flour to thicken if required). Add salt and pepper to taste.

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).

GRANDMA'S BUTTER NOODLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and melted butter together with a fork. Stir in the flour, baking powder and salt until dough becomes stiff. Knead on a lightly floured surface or in the bowl for a few minutes to blend completely. Divide the dough into thirds. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece into a sheet about 1/16 of an inch thick. Place each sheet onto a dry cloth and set aside for 30 to 45 minutes to partially dry.
• When the noodle sheets are somewhat dry, roll up one at a time into a loose spiral and cut into strips as wide as you want using a sharp knife. Spread out the noodles to dry for about 1 hour before cooking or storing in freezer containers. To use frozen noodles, thaw in the container before using.
• To cook the noodles, drop into rapidly boiling water or broth, and cook until tender, 7 to 10 minutes.

GRANDMA'S CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and oil, and boil for 8 minutes, or until tender. Drain, and rinse under cool running water.
• In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, combine broth, salt, and poultry seasoning. Bring to a boil. Stir in celery and onion. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water together until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Gradually add to soup, stirring constantly. Stir in noodles and chicken, and heat through.

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.
