Chicken Soup Secret Recipe
  1. Mix 6 Tablespoons of chicken base with 4 quarts of hot water and add to pot.

  2. Add everything else except the chicken to the pot.

  3. Slowly bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 30-45 minutes, until the veggies are almost soft.

  4. Important: Taste it. If it doesn’t taste 'chicken-y' enough, add more chicken base. If it’s not salty enough, add salt.

  5. Add the chicken and cook until the internal temperature of the chicken is about 190°F on an instant-read thermometer.

  6. Add pepper to taste. It takes quite a bit of pepper. Could easily be 2 tsp or more.

  7. Optional, but worth the time: Chill overnight and remove fat from surface of soup.

  8. Serve with Matzo Balls, noodles or dumplings. When reheating, use medium low heat and do not boil.
