Healing Chicken Bone Broth

This simple healing chicken bone broth recipe is packed with gut-healing nutrients and is a great base for soups and sauces.
Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 1 day
Total Time 1 day 30 minutes
Servings: 6 mason jars
Course: Soup

Ingredients
  

  • 2 chicken carcasses (left over from roasted or slow cooked pasture raised chicken and other left-over chicken bones)
  • 5 chicken backs (pasture raised)
  • 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • filtered water (to cover the bones)
  • 4 chicken feet (pasture raised (optional))

Method
 

  1. Place bones in the slow cooker. Try to almost fill it with bones otherwise it won’t be gelatinous. Although not a requirement, adding chicken feet makes for a great broth.
  2. Cover the bones with filtered water.
  3. Add apple cider vinegar.
  4. Let the broth simmer for 24 hours on low.
  5. Discard the larger bones and pour broth through a strainer into a large bowl.
  6. Cool to room temperature.
  7. Fill it into mason jars and either store in the fridge for 4-5 days or freeze. See tips below for freezing.
