Chicken broth is very similar to stock, but it's made from both the meat and bones of a chicken. A stock is prepared from bones only. Since whole chickens are inexpensive and more readily available, a broth it what makes sense to prepare at home. This video will walk you through the step-by-step process on how to make chicken broth at home.

CHICKEN BROTH RECIPE
(makes about 2 quarts)
Whole Chicken, about 4 lbs. (1 3/4 kg)
Yellow Onion, 4 oz. (113g)
Carrots, 2 oz. (57g)
Celery, 2 oz. (57g)
Parsley, 3 sprigs
Fresh Thyme, 3 sprigs
Bay Leaf, 1 each
Black Peppercorns, 6 each

* In this video I rinse the chicken before preparing it. This is not an attempt to get rid of bacteria, rather I like to remove the blood and juices the chicken has been resting in while packaged. With that said, the USDA states that rinsing can spread germs from the chicken (or other raw meats) to other food or utensils in the kitchen (source: bit.ly/3c1E2WZ ). If you choose to rinse, please do it at your own risk.

  • One of my subscribers (thanks John G) pointed out that he saves the broth fat instead of tossing it. It's very flavorful and can be used to cook in place of other fats. If you decide to do this just make sure to separate and toss (or add back to your broth) any moisture from the fat before storing it. Otherwise, it will shorten the fat's life span. Personally, I don't save this fat because the yield isn't large enough (less than 1/4 Cup) to warrant my time in separating it, however, the seasoned fat from a roasted chicken is something I can't give up. In my video I rinse the chicken before preparing it. This is not an attempt to get rid of bacteria, rather I like to remove the blood and juices the chicken has been resting in while packaged. With that said, the USDA states that rinsing can spread germs from the chicken (or other raw meats) to other food or utensils in the kitchen (source: bit.ly/3c1E2WZ ). If you choose to rinse, please do it at your own risk. Thanks again to John G for pointing this out!

    I'm 12 years old and my mom is teaching me how to cook and I think I'm gonna surprise her using this amazing recipe. Thanks a Lot!
  • @lisaboban
    Never thought to break down the chicken before making stock. Makes sense! More surface area is good.
  • First time watching and I could use your vids like an ASMR everytime before I sleep. Calm, soothing, informative.
  • @dawnlapinta3131
    Just like Mom and Grandmas! Thank you. Just needed a refresher.
  • @davidhoward3534
    Yay! I was looking for simple, straightforward instructions for using a whole chicken my neighbor gave me. I want to make chicken noodle soup. I've done it before just 'winging' it from what I can remember my Mom doing when I was little. I've been trying to develop my cooking skills, though, so I decided to research a bit. So many videos using ingredients, tools, and patience I don't have 🙄 This is exactly what I was looking for... simple. I also learned a few things that will definitely help! Thanks so much!
  • @bluefantasy6
    Love the added commentary with extra information and jokes
  • @tvc153
    Very helpful thank you I will do this this weekend.
  • @zuru9247
    I was so confused between chicken broth & stock. Thank you for the clear understand of the recipe.
  • The way you instructed in this video is so well done! A very clear and calm tone that I definitely prefer over extremely upbeat and intense music in the background. I just had to subscribe! Amazing presentation :D
  • @tellijelli
    I recommend buying ice cube trays that have lids and filling those up with this.
  • @Creeder991
    This is really good. Thank you for sharing the video.
  • @maxinetv2276
    I just tried your chicken broth recipe and it's cooking on the stove [as I write this]. I love your video and can't wait to see how it turned out! I learned a lot of new things here to take my broth to another level. Never used a cheesecloth before (just a stainless steel strainer), and haven't skimmed the surface of the broth in the past. I did everything you recommend in the video for this one, though. I look forward to checking out your other videos. Subscribed and tagged you on my IG stories. Thank you so much!
  • @Shadowguy456234
    Thanks for the great, informative video! Cooking this right now. While I'm waiting I thought I would ask you and my fellow viewers, I noticed you used the flat type of parsley - is there much difference between that and the curly type, or is it just superficial?
  • @kiraootori1430
    I’ve watched a dozen videos in chicken stock and this has been the best video.
