Here are a couple you might like:

chicken noodle-less soup recipes

 

Stock:
1 (2 1/2 to 3-pound) fryer chicken, cut up --I use both white and dark meat but I prefer dark meat as it's easier for me to eat
3 1/2 quarts water
1 onion, peeled and diced
1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 bay leaves
3 chicken bouillon cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

 

Soup:
2 cups sliced carrots
2 cups sliced celery, with leafy green tops
1 cup diced red potatoes
1 cup sliced mushrooms
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
Seasoning salt
Freshly ground black pepper  


For the stock: add all ingredients to a soup pot. Coo****il chicken is tender, about 35 to 45 minutes. Remove chicken from pot and set aside to cool. Remove and discard bay leaves and onion. You should have approximately 3 quarts of stock. When chicken is cool enough to touch, pick bones clean, discarding bones, skin, and cartilage. Set chicken aside.

For the soup: bring stock back to a boil, add carrots, add potatoes and cook for 3 minutes. Add celery and continue to cook for 5 to 10 minutes.  When carrots & potatoes are done, add chicken, mushrooms, parsley and rosemary.  Cook for another 2 minutes. Adjust seasoning, if needed, by adding seasoning salt and pepper.
