Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Broth and Stock Recipes     Chicken Stock Recipes

Time 4h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (3 1/2) pound chicken, giblets removed
1 onion, peeled and quartered
1 rib celery, cut in chunks
2 teaspoons kosher salt
3 cloves garlic, lightly smashed
1 tablespoon ketchup
2 quarts cold water, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place chicken, onion, and celery in a Dutch oven. Sprinkle salt over the top of the chicken.
  • Roast chicken, uncovered, in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink inside, the skin is browned, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh reads 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Transfer chicken to a plate until cool enough to handle. Once cool, pick the meat from the bones; set aside chicken breast meat in a bowl for another purpose. Cover bowl of breast meat with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Discard chicken skin.
  • Remove chicken fat from Dutch oven, leaving the brown flavor bits in the bottom of the Dutch oven. (See note for reserving drippings if desired.)
  • Place the Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Return chicken bones and dark meat from drumsticks and thighs to the pot. Add garlic cloves, ketchup and cold water. Bring to a boil, and use a spoon to scrape up and dissolve the brown flavor bits from the bottom of the Dutch oven. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 3 hours, adding more water if needed to retain same level.
  • As broth simmers, occasionally skim off and discard any foam that rises to the surface.
  • Remove and discard bones, meat and vegetables. Strain broth through a fine mesh sieve to serve or use in recipes.

ROASTED CHICKEN STOCK



Roasted Chicken Stock image

One of the great joys of roasting a chicken is turning the bones into stock. This simple golden elixir, a real panacea for life's ailments, starts with a leftover carcass from a roasted chicken, one you've already eaten and picked the meat off of. What you're going for here isn't clarity in looks or flavor, as you might with a traditional French stock. Instead, this version is deeply fortified with alliums, bay leaves, peppercorns and a touch of turmeric for earthy depth and spiced savoriness. This stock is great to cook with, but also tastes excellent sipped straight from a mug like tea.

Provided by Eric Kim

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 1/2 to 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 leftover carcass from a whole roasted chicken, meat picked off and saved for another use
1 large yellow onion
1 head of garlic
8 small or 4 large dried bay leaves
1 tablespoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal) or 1 1/2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric

Steps:

  • To make this stock in an Instant Pot: Add the chicken carcass to a 3- or 6-quart Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker. Chop the onion into eighths, and slice the garlic head in half crosswise to expose the cloves; dump the alliums into the pot over the chicken. Crush the bay leaves and add, along with the salt, black peppercorns, and turmeric. Add enough cold water to reach the max line in the 3-quart or to cover the bones in the 6-quart (5 to 6 cups). Gently stir and cover with the lid. Pressure-cook on high for 1 hour and let the pressure release naturally.
  • To make this stock on the stove: Follow Step 1, but place all of the ingredients, including the water, into a large heavy-bottomed pot, such as a Dutch oven or stock pot, and gently stir. Bring to a boil over high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cover and cook until the stock is deeply golden, the chicken bones are falling apart at the joints when you try to pick them up and the vegetables have turned to mush, about 3 hours.
  • Strain the contents of the pot through a colander set over a large bowl; press the bones to get out all of the liquid. Taste for seasoning, adjusting with salt as desired. Ladle the stock into large mugs for sipping, or use as an ingredient in your cooking. Alternatively, you can let the strained stock cool slightly before transferring into quart containers and storing in the refrigerator.
  • This chicken stock will keep in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 4 months. Heat individual portions in coffee mugs to drink in the morning for breakfast, or use as a base for soups, stews and porridges throughout the week.

PRESSURE COOKER DARK ROASTED CHICKEN STOCK RECIPE - (4.1/5)



Pressure Cooker Dark Roasted Chicken Stock Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 12

HERBS:
2 pounds chicken wings (or a combo of drumsticks and or thighs)
2 stalks celery
1 onion (just cut into quarters and don't worry about peeling)
2 carrots (no need to peel)
2 cloves garlic (unpeeled)
2 teaspoons whole peppercorns (I put mine into a tea "ball" to easily remove)
Olive oil
Salt & pepper
Small bunch of fresh parsley (about 1 dozen stalks)
2 bay leaves
NOTE: I don't add salt to my chicken broth until I actually use it. That way, I can control the seasoning if I use it within a recipe.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Place into a roasting pan and add vegetables, onion and garlic. Drizzle with olive oil, and mix with hands to coat. Roast for approximately 45 minutes, until everything has achieved a dark color. If you don't own a pressure cooker (buy one!) then simmer this on a stove top for about an 90 minutes. If using a pressure cooker: Pour in 8 cups of water into the pot. Add all the roasted chicken and vegetables into the pot. Add the bay leaves and fresh parsley. Lock on the lid, and pressure cook on HIGH for 35 minutes (or use the SOUP button). When the PC beeps, do a quick pressure release. Carefully strain the broth. The broth can be frozen for future use. See my recipe, on Key Ingredient, for "Grießnockerlsuppe (Semolina Dumpling Soup)" http://www.keyingredient.com/recipes/3014865032/grienockerlsuppe-semolina-dumpling-soup/ to see how I made the dumplings.

BASIC CHICKEN STOCK



Basic Chicken Stock image

Use this versatile chicken stock as a base for classic soups, such as Broccoli Cream Soup and Creamy Tomato Soup. The recipe is adapted from the "Martha Stewart's Cooking School" cookbook.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Yield Makes about 2 1/2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 pounds assorted chicken parts (backs, necks, legs, and wings), rinsed
2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped into 2-inch lengths
2 celery stalks, chopped into 2-inch lengths
2 medium onions, peeled and cut into quarters
2 dried bay leaves
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns

Steps:

  • Place chicken parts in a stockpot just large enough to hold them with about 3 inches of room above (an 8-quart pot should do) and add enough water to cover by 1 inch (about 3 quarts). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, using a ladle to skim impurities and fat that rise to the top.
  • Add vegetables, bay leaf, and peppercorns and reduce heat to a bare simmer (bubbles should just gently break the surface). Cook, skimming frequently, for at least 1 1/2 hours and up to 4 hours.
  • Pass stock through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into a large heatproof measuring cup or another bowl or pot; do not press on solids. Discard solids.
  • Skim off fat if using immediately, or let cool completely (in an ice-water bath, if desired) before transferring to airtight containers. Refrigerate at least 8 hours to allow the fat to accumulate at the top; lift off and discard fat before using or storing stock.

CHICKEN STOCK



Chicken Stock image

This recipe for an intense, lovely chicken stock is full of deep flavors and provides a perfect base for soup. Feel free to use leftover bones from roast chicken, but at least half of the bones should be raw. Ask your butcher for feet, heads and wings, which are all high in gelatin and will lend body to the stock. Once cooled, freeze the stock in old 32-ounce yogurt containers, which have the added benefit of being premeasured.

Provided by Samin Nosrat

Time 9h

Yield About 6 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 pounds raw chicken bones
6 quarts water
2 onions, unpeeled, quartered
2 carrots, peeled and halved crosswise
2 celery stalks, halved crosswise
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
2 bay leaves
4 thyme sprigs
5 parsley sprigs (or 10 stems)
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Put everything but the vinegar in a large stockpot. Bring the stock to a boil over high heat, then turn down to a simmer.
  • Skim off any foam that rises to the surface. Add the vinegar. (It helps draw out nutrients and minerals from the bones into the stock.)
  • Simmer the stock for 6 to 8 hours, covered, keeping an eye on it to make sure it stays at a simmer.
  • Strain the stock through a fine-meshed sieve. Let cool.
  • Scrape the fat that rises to the top. (Save it in the fridge or freezer for matzoh ball soup.) Refrigerate for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH ONION GRAVY



Roasted Chicken with Onion Gravy image

Mashed Parsnips and Potatoes make a fine side dish to our Roasted Chicken with Onion Gravy. The potatoes soak up the extra gravy.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 four- to five-pound chicken
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3 medium white onions
2 lemons
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups Homemade Chicken Stock Homemade Chicken Stock, or low-sodium canned

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Rinse chicken, and pat dry with paper towels. Season inside with salt and pepper. Slice 2 onions crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick rings. Place in a single layer in a roasting pan, about 13-by-16 inches. Slice 1 lemon into 1/4-inch-thick rings, and place on top of onions. Cut remaining onion and lemon into wedges, and stuff into cavity of chicken. Tie legs together with kitchen twine, and place on bed of onions and lemon. Brush with melted butter, and cook, basting occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Cover with foil if skin gets too brown. Transfer chicken to platter or cutting board to rest while making gravy.
  • Place pan with onions and drippings over medium heat. Sprinkle with flour, and stir constantly until well combined. Add chicken stock, and cook, stirring occasionally, until gravy thickens, about 3 minutes. Strain, discarding solids, and season with salt and pepper. Serve hot over chicken.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of bones. For the richest flavor, use a combination of chicken backs, necks, and wings. You can also add a few roasted vegetables, such as carrots, celery, and onions, for extra flavor.
  • Roast the bones before simmering them. Roasting the bones before simmering them helps to develop a deeper flavor. You can roast the bones in a 400°F oven for 30-45 minutes, or until they are browned.
  • Simmer the stock for at least 4 hours. The longer you simmer the stock, the more flavor it will have. You can simmer the stock for up to 24 hours, but 4-6 hours is usually sufficient.
  • Strain the stock before using it. Once the stock is finished simmering, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any solids. You can then use the stock immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Making chicken stock at home is a great way to save money and get a delicious, healthy ingredient for your cooking. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make chicken stock that is just as good as, if not better than, store-bought stock. So next time you're making a soup, stew, or sauce, try using homemade chicken stock instead of store-bought. You'll be glad you did!
