- 1 whole chicken
- 1 chicken bouillon cube
- 226.79 g container cream cheese, with onion and

- 170.09 g can cream of chicken soup
- 340.19 g broad egg noodles

directions
- Remove the neck/gibblet package from the chicken. Rinse the chicken under cold water.
- for 2 minutes then place in a large pot of hot water. Bring the water to a boil, cover the pot and boil the chicken until the leg joints become loose and the meat will pull easily from the bones (about 45 minutes).
- Remove the chicken from the pot (don't pour out the water!)and let it cool so you dont burn your fingers removing the meat from the bone.
- In the same pot you used to cook the chicken, skim off the fat (you can save it for other recipes). Keep about 3 cups of broth in the pot. If there isn't enough, add water to make at least 3 cups.
- Add the bouillon cube, stir to dissolve.
- Heat the broth to boiling and put in the noodles. Cook till soft. Turn the heat down to low/ simmer. Do not drain.
- Stir in the soup and cream cheese. Allow to continue to simmer on very low heat.
- De-bone the chicken and add to the noodles.
- Season with salt and pepper as desired.
