Post-Chemo Chicken Noodle Soup - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 chicken, cut up
1 carrot, diced
1 stalk celery, diced
1 onion, diced
1 garlic clove, diced
3 peppercorns
2 beef bouillon cubes
1/2 lemon, juice of
8 ounces egg noodles

Place cut up chicken in large stock pot.
Add carrot, celery, onion, garlic, peppercorns, bouillon cubes, salt, lemon juice, and 2 quarts cold water.
Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cover; simmer until chicken is tender. (About 1 hour.).
Remove chicken to cutting board. When chicken is cool enough to handle, remove skin, bones, cut chicken into 1-2\" pieces. (Turn off the soup and keep it covered while you're doing this.)
Also, look for the 3 peppercorns and throw them away if you see them.
Return chicken to soup pot, along with noodles. Cook for 15 minutes longer, until noodles are done.
