Easy Stovetop Amish Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 (2 pound) roasting chicken
• 8 cups water, or as needed
• 1 (28 ounce) can low fat, low sodium chicken broth
• 3 large baking potatoes, peeled
• 1 (10 ounce) package wide egg noodles
• 1 teaspoon salt-free seasoning blend
• salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Place the chicken in a large pot and cover it with water. Bring to a boil, then cover and cook over high heat for about 35 minutes, or until the chicken easily falls off the bone. Flip the chicken once during cooking for even cooking. Cutting the chicken into pieces will speed up cooking.
2. While the chicken cooks, cut two potatoes into large chunks and the remaining potato into very small cubes.
3. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the water. Remove the skin, and place all the chicken meat in a separate dish. Shred the meat into long pieces. Save the cooking water in a separate container. Discard the chicken skin and bones.
4. Pour the chicken broth into the pot, then add the potatoes, chicken, salt, and pepper. Add 2 to 3 cups of the reserved water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 15 minutes, until the potatoes begin to soften. Add 3 more cups of the chicken water and the noodles. Season with salt-free seasoning blend, salt, and pepper. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until the noodles are tender and the small potato pieces have dissolved.
