Method

Chicken: In a large stock pot, place chicken and sliced vegetables. Season and add water until chicken is well covered. Simmer until chicken is done enough to be pulled easily from bones, about 2 hours. Remove chicken from broth and cool. Strain vegetables from broth and reserve broth for soup. When chicken is cool, remove meat from skin and bones. Chop meat into bite size pieces. Noodles: On lightly floured board, knead dough until smooth. Cover and let stand 20-30 minutes. Divide dough into 6 equal parts. Roll out each part into desired thickness, about 1/16 inch. On cutting board, cut dough into thin stripes about 1/4 inch using a pizza cutter. Place on waxed paper to dry. Dry at least 6-8 hours, or overnight in a single layer. Soup: In a large stock pot, place chicken, reserved broth, salt, pepper, thyme and bring to a simmer. Add frozen vegetables and simmer until vegetables are tender. Add noodles and canned chicken broth then simmer until noodles are done. If you do not have enough broth, just add more canned chicken broth.
