Steps:
- To make the stock, place all of the ingredients from the first (for the stock) section in a large stockpot. Add just enough water to cover the chicken and let simmer under low heat for approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

- Once the chicken is cool enough to handle with your hands, pull the chicken into large chunks and dispose of the skin and bones.
- To the stock and chicken chunks, add all the ingredients from the second (for the soup) section of ingredients.
- Let simmer for another 20 minutes or so until all the ingredients are cooked thoroughly and the flavors infuse together. Remove from heat and enjoy.

Steps:
- Place the chicken in a large stock pot, cover with water and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer about 30 to 45 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
- Skim impurities from the broth as needed.
- Remove chicken parts from liquid and set aside to cool.
- When cool enough to handle, remove the skin and bones.
- Pull meat apart.
- (At this point you can use whatever meat you like. I use the legs, thighs and wings in the soup and save the breast meat for other uses; but you need to simmer the whole chicken to get enough flavor in the broth).
- Add the carrot, celery flakes, greek seasonings, chicken bouillon and 4 cups water to the broth.
- Simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Adjust seasonings to taste, add more water if you think you need it to cook the noodles.
- Add the chicken.
- Bring the broth to a boil and add the noodles (more or less depending on taste).
- Simmer rapidly until noodles are cooked through, about 7- 10 minutes.
- Serve hot.
- (Note: Leftovers are good, but the noodles absorb the liquid so you may have to add more broth).
