Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Your Rotisserie Chicken

Start by removing any remaining meat from the rotisserie chicken. You can use this meat in other dishes such as salads, sandwiches, or even in a delicious leftover rotisserie chicken recipe. Be sure to leave some on the bones for extra flavor in your broth.

Step 2: Gather Your Ingredients

Peel and chop your carrots, celery, and onion. These vegetables will add a rich flavor to your broth. Lightly crush the garlic cloves to release their natural oils, which will infuse the broth with a delightful aroma.

Step 3: Simmering the Broth

Place the chicken bones, vegetables, and bay leaf in a large pot. Cover everything with water, making sure the bones are completely submerged. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it cook for at least 4-6 hours to extract all the nutrients and flavors.

Step 4: Strain and Season

Once your broth has reached the desired flavor and consistency, strain out the solids using a fine-mesh sieve. Season the broth with salt and pepper to taste. Your bone broth is now ready to be enjoyed. Check out this fantastic rotisserie chicken recipe for more inspiration.

Step 5: Storing Your Bone Broth

Let the broth cool down before transferring it into airtight containers. You can refrigerate it for up to five days or freeze it for up to three months. This way, you'll always have a batch of nutrient-rich broth ready to enhance your cooking.
