CHICKEN BONE BROTH SOUP RECIPES

Steps:

• If the bones are cooked, place them in the Instant Pot insert. If the bones are raw, place them on a baking sheet, drizzle with the olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in a 400°F oven for 20 minutes. Transfer the bones and any juices to the Instant Pot.
• Add the carrots, celery, onion, parsley, garlic, vinegar, and enough filtered water to just barely cover the bones.
• Secure the lid and select the soup/stew button for 80 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally, then remove the lid.
• Skim the fat from the broth and pour the broth through a fine-mesh sieve to strain out the bones and other solids.
• Allow the broth to cool to room temperature, then store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for 1 week, or freeze in silicone muffin molds and, once frozen, transfer to resealable plastic bags for 6 months. Reheat from frozen in a saucepan over medium-low heat for 15 minutes, until heated through.

Steps:

• If you want to roast the bones first, heat the oven to 450ºF. Lay the bones out on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until well browned, 25 to 35 minutes.
• Put the bones (roasted or not) in the pressure cooker pot and add all the remaining ingredients. Cover with 3 to 3 1/2 quarts of water (the water shouldn’t come more than two-thirds of the way up the side of the pot). To make regular stock, cook on high pressure for 1 hour if using all chicken or poultry bones, or 2 hours for beef or pork bones or a combination of poultry and meat. For bone broth, cook on high pressure for 3 hours for poultry bones, and 4 1/2 hours for beef, pork, or mixed bones. When making bone broth, you’ll know you’ve cooked it long enough if all the connective tissue, tendons, and cartilage have dissolved and the bones crumble a bit when you poke at them. If this hasn’t happened, cook it on high pressure for another 30 minutes and check it again.
• Allow the pressure to release naturally. Use the broth or stock right away, or store it in the refrigerator or freezer. Bone broth and regular stock will keep for 5 days refrigerated or up to 6 months frozen.
