Ingredients
- 4 pounds whole chicken (3 ½ to 4 pounds)
- 2 ribs celery
- 2 carrots
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 large yellow onion halved
- 4 prigs flat leaf Italian parsley
- 3 prigs fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
- water
Instructions
- In a large stock pot or Dutch oven, combine all ingredients.
- Add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and then reduce to low heat.
- Maintain a slow simmer and cook for two hours.
- Remove chicken to a plate or pan and set aside. Strain the vegetables and herbs from the broth and discard them.
- Store the broth in a covered container in the refrigerator until ready to use. Or freeze for up to 3 months.
Notes
- Although I sometimes use glass jars to store this broth, this is not a canning recipe. The broth must be kept in the refrigerator or freezer.
- Refrigerate the broth in airtight containers for up to four days.
- To freeze, portion into freezer-safe containers and freeze for up to three months. I find that freezing in quarts works best for me. You might prefer to portion into pints. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
