1 (3 1/2-lb) whole chicken
5 cups water
2 celery stalk tops with leaves
1 1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
3 to 4 bacon slices
3 green onions, sliced
2 large celery ribs, chopped
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 hard-cooked eggs, sliced

Bring first 5 ingredients to a boil in a large Dutch oven; reduce heat, and simmer mixture 1 1/2 hours or until chicken is done.

Saute green onions and chopped celery in hot drippings in skillet over medium heat 5 minutes or until tender. Gradually whisk in flour until blended. Gradually add reserved broth; cook, whisking constantly, 3 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Stir in chicken, bacon, eggs, and next 5 ingredients.
