Homemade Chicken Stock

Make your own chicken stock instead of buying it. A great use for leftover chicken bones and skin.

Ingredients:

• 14 cups water
• 4 pounds chicken pieces (backs, drumsticks, necks and/or thighs)
• 2 large carrots, chopped
• 2 small onions, unpeeled
• 6 garlic cloves
• 2 bay leaves

Directions:

Combine water, chicken, carrots, onions, garlic and bay leaves in a large pot or dutch oven over medium high heat. Bring to a boil. Skim the foam from the top and reduce to low heat. Cook for 2 hours on low heat.
