Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 1 hour, or until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the vegetables are tender. Remove and discard the bay leaves and parsley sprigs. Remove the chicken from the soup. Skim the fat from the top of the soup with a large spoon. Remove and discard the chicken skin. Remove the meat from the bones.
