Here's an Asian style chicken soup to warm the soul. It starts with a whole chicken, which is simmered wtih aromatics to produce a flavorful broth (so it's also economical) that is infused wtih garlic, soy sauce, and fresh ginger. The chicken will be exceptionally tender and easy to pull the meat off the bones, while the broth is then used to cook the noodles. Even the vegetables that were used to flavor the broth get incorporated in the final dish, so that nothing is wasted.
