Prettied ingredients

Authored by Shanzy
Makes about 2 quarts (1.9L)

Ingredients

  • 4 1/2 lb (2kg) mixed chicken parts, such as wings, backs, bones, and feet (see note)
  • 1 1/2 lb yellow onions (680g) diced
  • 12 ounces carrots (340g) diced
  • 8 ounces celery (225g) diced
  • 4 medium cloves garlic
  • 4 flat-leaf parsley sprigs
  • 3 fresh thyme sprigs Optional
  • 1 bay leaf

Instructions

1

Combine all ingredients in a stovetop or electric pressure cooker and cover with cold water, about 2 quarts (1.9L). Make sure not to let liquid exceed the cooker's max-fill line; it's okay if a few things poke above the water's surface.

2

Close cooker and bring to high pressure, then cook at high pressure for 45 minutes. Allow cooker to depressurize, either by allowing it to cool to room temperature (for the clearest stock) or by using the pressure-release valve on the cooker to rapidly vent steam. (Using the release valve will cause the stock to boil, which may result in some loss of clarity; this should not be an issue unless you're serving it as consommé or in another preparation that requires the broth to be crystal-clear.)

3

Skim fat from stock, strain, then use as desired or freeze for up to 6 months.
