When my children were young they liked to eat the Ramen noodles. I didn't want them to eat noodles only! I cubed chicken breasts, used chicken broth instead of water (plus added fresh herbs like lemon thyme and bay leaf tied in a bouquet garni) then added veggies (even the frozen soup veggies from the grocery store is good). Brought that to a boil, then simmered for a bit before adding the Ramen noodles. Three minutes after adding the noodles the soup is done. Add flavor packet if you like. Salt to tast I guess this was about 15 minutes too. I couldn't keep 3 hungry boys waiting too long! It's really getting cold now, chicken and gravy sounds wonderful!!!!

I now wish that I had asked her how she prepared the dish before she passed away. Oh well, too late. You live and learn and hopefully don't regret.

Nobody made it like my great aunt Nell and in parts of the south it's called smothered chicken, because of all the gravy it's swimming in. The gravy must have the right consisency. She used all parts of the chicken with skin on and made a lovely smooth, rich brown gravy from the meat bits and a little oil left in the pan that almost always needed some fresh, hot from the oven homemade rolls or biscuits to go with it. The gravy had an excellent chickenn flavor too! Ummmm umm. I can taste and smell it now. Funny that you bring this up. I was talking the other with my mother about foods from my childhood and mentioned aunt Nell's chicken and gravy. Sometimes we would have it for breakfast on Sunday mornings, (a southern thing). I will attempt to prepare some for dinner one evening, but I doubt that I could replicate the taste, since food and ingredients have changed so much, especially the taste of chickens. I think the closest I'll come is an Empire Brand Chicken. Definitely will try this. Thanks Maria. I haven’t had chicken and gravy in years!
