Chicken Noodle Soup
Makes 4 Servings
Ingredients
2lbs of organic or free range chicken wings
2 carrots
2 celery sticks
1 onion , peeled and halved
½ a bunch of thyme
2 nests of vermicelli pasta, broken into pieces
5oz frozen peas
Preparation
Put the chicken wings into a large pan with the carrots, celery, onion and thyme, and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, turn down to a simmer and cook for 1½ hours, skimming any impurities from the surface. Strain the broth through a colander, keeping the chicken wings but discarding the veg and herbs. Sieve the broth into a clean pan.
Remove the meat from the wings when they've cooled a bit (discard the skin and bone), add back to the broth and re-heat. Cook the pasta in the broth, then add the peas and cook until tender. Season and serve.
