Homemade Chicken Noodles

Today is my daughter Hannah's 12th birthday.  My kids always request a meal for their special day.  Today, Hannah wanted chicken noodles.  

We started with a triple batch of noodles. 
So it's this recipe times three.  You can do it by hand, but I'm lazy, so I do it in the food processor in 3 batches. 

Noodles

1 2/3 cup flour
2Tb butter
1tsp salt
2 eggs
4Tb  1/2 & 1/2

Mix flour, butter, salt  in food processor.  Beat eggs & 1/2 & 1/2, then add to food processor. 


Setting 5 on noodle roller. 


Then we lay the noodles out on the table, cut into strips, and let dry. 


While that is drying, I have the chicken bone broth thawing, along with the chicken thighs that will be cooked in the chicken broth.  

Heat the broth with the thighs (or whatever pieces you want) and bring to a boil then simmer until fully cooked, about an hour. 

Remove chicken and cool.  Then remove meat, chop, and set aside.  

Bring liquid to boiling and add noodles.  Cook 15-20 minutes, until al dente.  If you want thickened, mix 1/4 cup softened butter with 1/4 flour.  Add to liquid and stir until liquid boils.  Add chicken and serve.
