Equipment

  • pressure cooker

Ingredients
  

  • 1 chicken carcass I use a picked-over rotisserie or roaster chicken or 3 lbs chicken wings
  • 1 medium yellow onion cut in half (leave peel on)
  • 2 carrots cut into thirds
  • 2 celery stalks with leaves cut into thirds
  • 5 garlic cloves halved (peels intact)
  • ¼ cup parsley leaves and stems small bunch of parsley
  • 5 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon whole peppercorns
  • 2 Tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 8-10 cups water (1.9-2.3 L)

Instructions
 

  • Add all ingredients to your pressure cooker, being sure to not fill water above the “MAX FILL” line on the pressure cooker.
  • Select manual setting, high pressure, and turn vent to “sealing”. Set time for 45 minutes.
  • Once 45 minutes has passed, allow pressure to release naturally.
  • Discard chicken remains and large vegetable pieces. Strain stock through a fine mesh strainer, removing and discarding all solid pieces/scraps that remain.
  • Allow to cool before portioning into airtight containers and refrigerating. After overnight refrigeration you may easily skim the fat cap off the surface of the stock before using.
