Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Cover the chicken with water and bring to a boil in a large dutch oven or pot.
  2. Add 1 1/2 tsp. salt.
  3. Add 1/2 tsp. pepper.
  4. Add garlic powder, dried thyme and ground red pepper.
  5. Add desired amount of chopped onion, celery and carrot (optional).
  6. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour.
  7. Remove chicken, saving broth in dutch oven. Allow to cool.
  8. Skim fat from broth. (I cook the chicken the night before and pour the fat into a container and refrigerate overnight; it is easier to skim the fat this way.)

  10. Skin, bone and coursely chop chicken.
  11. Add chicken, bouillon and remaining salt & pepper to broth.
  12. Return to simmer.

  17. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface.
  18. Roll out to 1/8 inch thickness.
  19. Cut into 1 inch pieces.
