Remove the chicken breasts and set them aside for a different recipe.
Use the carcass chicken legs and chicken wings and for the soup.
Place the chicken legs and wings in a large pot and cover with water.
Add salt, pepper, and any herbs you prefer.
Bring the pot to a boil. As it begins boiling, you'll notice foam (scum) rising to the top.
Skim off this foam with a spoon to ensure a clearer broth.
After skimming, reduce the heat and let the soup simmer for 1.5 hours.
Carefully remove the chicken pieces from the pot.
Allow them to cool slightly, then remove the meat from the bones and set aside.
Peel and chop the carrots and potatoes into chunks.
Return the pot to the heat and add the chopped carrots and potatoes to the broth.
Boil for an additional 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Return the shredded chicken meat (from the legs and wings) back into the pot.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning as needed with additional salt or pepper.
Ladle the soup into bowls and enjoy your hearty, homemade chicken soup!
