M-J’s Original Recipe
Boil three cups of Country Pasta egg noodles (from Montana, available at Sam’s Club) in ten cups of chicken broth diluted with water, or water to which some chicken bouillon concentrate has been added. I used two tablespoons of Tone’s brand chicken base (Tennessee and Iowa, USA), available at Sam’s. Mix one tablespoon of flour with three tablespoons of the broth, and stir it into the simmering soup as a thickener if desired. Add a half-cup (or more to your taste) of chopped green chiles either from Hatch of New Mexico or El Paso brand (Texas) in cans. Then, when the egg noodles or pasta strips are soft, in about thirty minutes, stir-in a half-cup of sour cream.
