Pressure Cooker Dark Roasted Chicken Stock Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 12

HERBS:
2 pounds chicken wings (or a combo of drumsticks and or thighs)
2 stalks celery
1 onion (just cut into quarters and don't worry about peeling)
2 carrots (no need to peel)
2 cloves garlic (unpeeled)
2 teaspoons whole peppercorns (I put mine into a tea "ball" to easily remove)
Olive oil
Salt & pepper
Small bunch of fresh parsley (about 1 dozen stalks)
2 bay leaves
NOTE: I don't add salt to my chicken broth until I actually use it. That way, I can control the seasoning if I use it within a recipe.

Steps:

Preheat oven to 400°F. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Place into a roasting pan and add vegetables, onion and garlic. Drizzle with olive oil, and mix with hands to coat. Roast for approximately 45 minutes, until everything has achieved a dark color. If you don't own a pressure cooker (buy one!) then simmer this on a stove top for about an 90 minutes. If using a pressure cooker: Pour in 8 cups of water into the pot. Add all the roasted chicken and vegetables into the pot. Add the bay leaves and fresh parsley. Lock on the lid, and pressure cook on HIGH for 35 minutes (or use the SOUP button). When the PC beeps, do a quick pressure release. Carefully strain the broth. The broth can be frozen for future use.
