Golden Chicken Bone Broth

A heartwarming broth that can be enjoyed on its own or used as a base.

Directions:                    

1. In a large pot, add chicken bones and water. Water should be covering bones by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour, skimming the top as needed.
2. Add bay leaves, peppercorns, parsley, carrots, celery and onion. Continue simmering for 4 hours.
3. Strain liquid, discard bones. Reserve liquid in a large bowl, season to taste with salt. Refrigerate overnight.
4. Skim the solidified fat and refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for up to 6 months. Heat to serve.

TIP: A great way to obtain bones is to buy whole chickens, remove the meat and use in an alternate recipe such as the Butternut Squash and Cranberry Chicken Meatloaf.
