Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings 1 (5 pound) whole chicken 1 pound carrots, peeled and sliced 1 pound celery, sliced 2 tomatoes, seeded and chopped 1 large onion, chopped 1 bunch fresh dill 1 tablespoon salt 1 tablespoon ground black pepper 10 cups warm water as needed Directions Clean chicken, remove and discard some, but not all, fat. Place in a large saucepan with carrots, celery, tomatoes, and onion. Tie dill sprigs into a bunch with kitchen twine. Add to the saucepan, and season with salt and pepper. Add water until chicken is covered by 2 inches. Cook over medium-low heat until chicken is cooked through, about 3 hours. Remove chicken to a plate and allow to cool, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove meat from bones, cut into bite-size pieces, and return to the saucepan. Discard bones. Cook over medium-low heat until heated through, about 30 minutes longer. Remove dill before serving. Cook's Note: If you prefer not to add tomato, as some of my family members do, simply place a whole tomato in the pot for flavor and remove it once the soup is done.
