GOOD OLD FASHIONED CHICKEN SOUP/STEW

Steps:

• In a large dutch oven or stock pot, add onion, celery, carrots, garlic and bay leaf. Place chicken on top, and add water. (If your pot will only hold 10 cups of water at first, the remaining water can be added later, as some of it will evaporate.) Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1-1/2 hours.
• Using a slotted spoon, remove chicken to a plate to cool. Strain the broth, and discard the vegetables.
• At this point, the broth may be cooled and frozen for later use, or you may continue on with the recipe. This is an excellent time to remove any remaining fat from the broth.
• Remove the meat from the bones, cut and set aside.
• Return the broth to a clean pot. Bring to a boil and add the potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 1/2 hour.
• Add the chicken, bouillon, frozen vegetables, and noodles. Simmer for 20 minutes.

• Pour 1 1/2 cups of water into the pressure cooker. Add the olive oil, tomato paste, garlic, & the rest of the spices into the pot. (Don't forget 1/2 teaspoon of salt, pepper, cumin, & paprika).
• Note: If you are using a regular pot instead of a pressure cooker the cook times are tripled & you may need more water.
• Place the chicken into the cooker & add the onions & carrot. Cook for 10 minutes, after it begins to hiss. (Regular pot, roughly 30 minutes).
• Remove chicken & place on a plate. Put the potatoes & 1 1/2 cups of water into the pot & cook for 4 more minutes, after it begins to hiss. (Regular pot, 12-15 minutes).
• While the potatoes are cooking break the chicken into small pieces (disregard the bones).
• Once the potatoes are done add the chicken back into the pan & stir. Pour into a serving dish & serve with warm bread.
