Basic Chicken Stock

This stock turned out great! I made exactly as written except perhaps adding a bit more water. I did use 3 chicken legs instead of a whole chicken, pretty sure that it did not make a difference. A rich beautiful stock that will come in handy in all my rice dishes, soups, stews etc. I just love making my own stock. Thanks for posting this keeper!

Wonderful stock. I used chicken leg quarters instead of a whole chicken but otherwise made this as directed. I used some of the stock to make Baked Chicken Soup. Made for Gimme 5 tag.

Haven't made this much stock before but it's going to be so useful. First time using garlic in a stock and I liked it. Added some thyme as well.

A deliciously flavoursome stock that's so very easy to make and that I am confident will enhance the flavour of all the recipes I use it in. :) And it's great knowing that it contains no chemicals! I made this yesterday, as I was planning to use it in making breezermom's Cure My Cold! Chicken Soup. After it had come to the boil, I simply transferred everything into a crockpot and cooked it on low for about 8 hours. Thank you, smellyvegetarian, for assuring me that my guesstimate re-time was fine! I just love the put-on-and-forget-about-it element in using a crockpot for a recipe such as this, though the wonderful aromas as it bubbled away made forgetting it was cooking impossible! I only departed from the recipe in a few minor details: I doubled the garlic, added a leek and also added some dried rosemary and sage to the other herbs. All regular additions for me in many recipes. I'll certainly be making this regularly, breezermom. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe.

I was initially wary that this stock recipe doesn't contain celery, but rest assured the flavor does NOT suffer for it. I was in and out all day so I threw everything in the crock pot and set it on low for about 7 1/2 hours, and it came out perfectly. I also coarsely chopped my veggies since I wasn't planning to use them again. I was especially pleased that, with a few moments of effort, I now have an entire freezer bag of chicken to use in recipes AND a delicious rich stock to boot. Thanks so much for posting! Made for Went to Market tag.
