Bring chicken bones and water to boil.
Add fresh onion, 2 grated carrots, chicken (boned), season with bouillon and season salt, and garlic. Simmer, skimming any scum that rises to surface. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 1 1/2 hours. Strain and discard all the vegetables. Save any chicken for a later use. Refrigerate overnight, skim off any solidified fat. Will keep 3-4 days.
Add homemade noodles for great chicken noodle soup.
