Basic Chicken Stock Recipe
- 4 to 8 pounds (1.8 to 3.6kg) chicken parts, such as wings, bones, breasts, and legs (see note)
- 4 quarts (3.8L) water
- 2 large yellow onions, diced
- 4 large carrots, diced
- 4 large celery ribs, diced
- 8 crushed medium cloves garlic
- 2 large sprigs parsley (see note)
- 2 packets unflavored gelatin, dissolved in 1/2 cup (120ml) cold water (optional; see note)
- Combine chicken, water, onions, celery, garlic, and parsley in a large stockpot and bring to a simmer over low heat. Lower heat, maintaining a very gentle simmer, and cook for 1 hour 30 minutes. Strain stock through a fine-mesh strainer, let cool, then transfer to containers and refrigerate until completely chilled, about 6 hours. Skim off and remove any fat and scum on the surface. Refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 6 months. If stock is thin even after being fully refrigerated, add optional gelatin solution to stock and bring to a boil until fully dissolved, then refrigerate or freeze.
