1 whole chicken, disjointed
2 carrots, minced
2 stalks celery, minced
1 large whole yellow onion
Chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
5 cloves garlic, chopped
4 tablespoons softened butter
2 tablespoons flour
Make the chicken broth by simmering chicken, carrots, celery, onion, garlic,
parsley, salt and pepper in enough water to cover. When the chicken is
thoroughly cooked, remove it and skim the fat from broth.
Simmer broth, reducing it until it is very rich. Add the flour and butter to a
small amount of broth and mix with a wire whisk until velvety. Pour this mixture
into the remaining broth. Tear chicken into bite-size pieces and add to the
soup. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.
