Add all ingredients to a pot. Cook until the chicken is tender about 35 to 45 minutes. Remove chicken from pot and set aside to cool. remove and discard bay leaves and onion. You should have approximately 3 quarts of stock. When chicken is cool enough to touch, pick bones clean, discard- ing
bones, skin, and cartilage. Set chicken aside. For the next step, you will need:

2 1/2 cups uncooked egg noodles
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

cheese, cream and sherry. cook for another 2 minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed by adding salt and pepper. Enjoy along with a nice hot crusty loaf of French bread. If you are watching calories, you may leave out the cheese and
