Place the whole chicken in a large pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Skim off any foam.
- 2
Add chopped carrots, parsnip, celery, onion, garlic, and bay leaf to the pot. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- 3
Remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool slightly. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean pot, discarding the solids.
- 4
While the broth simmers, prepare the noodles: Whisk eggs with a pinch of salt. Gradually add flour to form a stiff dough. Knead for a few minutes, then let it rest for 15 minutes.
- 5
Roll out the dough very thinly on a floured surface and cut into thin noodles.
- 6
Shred or dice the cooked chicken meat and return it to the strained broth.

Bring the broth back to a gentle simmer. Add the fresh noodles and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until they float and are tender.

Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir in chopped fresh parsley just before serving.
