Instructions
Place all the chicken broth ingredients in a large pot or dutch oven. Bring to a boil and let simmer over medium heat for 3 hours. This will allow a nice rich broth to develop. Scoop out the carcass and other ingredients from the pot to leave only the broth.
Add the remaining ingredients, minus the noodles to the pot and bring back to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and let the soup have a rolling boil for about 30 minutes.
Stir in the egg noodles and cook until tender.
Ladle and serve.
Notes
You may find that the broth has reduced significantly during the simmering process. If this is the case, you can add some additional water to the pot. It is not uncommon for me to add 3-4 more cups of water.
