In a large sauce pot, heat the olive oil. Season the chicken with Emeril's Essence. When the oil is hot, add the chicken, bones and carcass and saute for about 5 minutes, or until the meat and bones are brown. Add the onions, celery, carrots, green onions, garlic, parsley, basil, and bay leaves.
Season with Essence. Saute the vegetables for 4 minutes. Add the chopped vegetables, spinach, and crushed red pepper and saute for 1 minute. Add the stock and bring the liquid to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, uncovered, for about 25 minutes. Add the noodles, bring back to a boil, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and discard the carcass and loose bones. Reseason with salt and pepper if needed. Ladle the soup in a bowl and garnish with chopped chives. This recipe yields 1 gallon of soup.
