Ingredients

Bones and/or skin from chicken carcass, raw or cooked.

Celery

Onions

Carrots

Garlic

Salt

Pepper

Water

Put left over chicken bones and skin into crock pot or large stock pot.

Add veggies (if you some old ones that need to be used up- perfect!) like onion, carrots, celery. Cut vegetables into large chucks. No need to peel, just clean. Add 2-3 cloves of garlic, unpeeled, cut in half.

Add enough water to cover ingredients.

Add parsley, about 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. 

Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer for at least 4 hours OR cook in crock pot for at least 8 hours. Skim off fat occasionally.

Remove bones with slotted spoon.

Filter stock through a cheese cloth (or coffee filter) lined strainer. Squish the juice out of the chunks of vegetables. 

Pour into jars and let cool. Can be stored in the fridge for 1 week or in freezer for several months.
