Ingredients
- 1 chicken skin removed, cut into 4 pieces
- 1 tick celery diced small
- 1 medium carrot diced small
- 1 small onion diced small
- 2 bay leaves
- a few sprigs thyme
- salt and pepper to taste
- 8 cups water cold
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, add all the ingredients and cover with water till ingredients are fully submerged.
- Bring to a boil, then turn the heat as low as it will go and simmer for 3 hours.
- Strain the stock using a fine mesh strainer.
Notes
- Chicken stock will keep in a sealed container for up to 3 days in the fridge.
- Freeze in ice cube trays, the same day.
- For a speedier chicken stock, use a pressure cooker/ instant pot - the chicken stock will taste just as good!
- A reduced stock has a richer more intense flavour, so after a while stop add more water and allow it to reduce.
- For a flavoursome sauce: Add a little cream to chicken stock for a smooth and delicious sauce over steak or grilled meats.
- For a tasty chicken noodle soup: Add boiled noodles and garnish with sliced scallions.
