Time 1h

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 3-to-4-pound chicken
1/2 large onion, roughly chopped (don't bother to peel)
1 large carrot, roughly chopped
1 celery rib, roughly chopped
1 bay leaf

Steps:

  • Cut the wings off the chicken, then separate the leg-thigh quarters from the carcass. Cut the back away from the breast. Pull the skin off of the backbone and legs-thighs and put it aside. Leave the skin on the breast. Set the leg-thigh quarters and the breast aside. Remove as much meat as you can - without going crazy - from the wings; dice and refrigerate.
  • Combine what's left of the wings with the backbone, onion, carrot, celery and bay leaf in a large pot with 4 cups water and turn the heat to high.
  • Bring almost to a boil, then lower the heat so the mixture sends up a few bubbles at a time. Cook for 30 minutes, or an hour if you have more time.
  • Cool slightly and strain, pressing down on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible; discard the solids.
