I freeze the water that I boiled the chicken breast in an ice cube tray, melt a cube & put half water & they lap it up! Some people make chicken broth from cooking the bones, no added salt. |
I make chicken broth like this as well.
If I can find them and have the extra time I use stripped chicken backs instead of breasts. I let the backs simmer for 2 - 3 hours strain the broth - it will have a lot of fat on the top so I refrigerate it over night to let all the fat rise to the top. Remove the fat and freeze in ice cube trays as Jenny recommended.
