Directions: |
Directions:Wash the chicken with water and place in pot. Add all of the other ingredients and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer gently with a lid half on the pot for a minimum of 45 minutes but it can cook for up to 90 minutes. Remove from the stove and pour through a strainer to get a clear broth. Chicken should come away easily from the bones if you want to cut some and put in the soup. Let cool. When broth has completely cooled, skim off the fat at the top. Can be frozen for up to a few months. |
