Super Immune-Boosting Chicken Bone Broth

Step 1

Add chicken bones, vegetables (or vegetable scraps), garlic, astragalus root, water, and apple cider vinegar into your stockpot.

Step 2

Let ingredients sit in the pot for about 15 minutes to allow the cider vinegar to start working.

Step 3

Place the pot on the stove and bring it up to a boil. After about 15 minutes you'll start seeing a bit of scum rising to the surface, this is normal and is just the impurities from the vegetables or the chicken. Skim off as needed.

Step 4

Once the broth has come to a boil, reduce heat, cover and allow it to simmer for up to 24 hours. The longer you can let it simmer, the more immune-boosting properties your broth will have.

Step 5

Turn off the heat and carefully strain the broth. If you want to get a really clear broth, you can strain it through a cheesecloth, but this isn't necessary.

Step 6

It's now ready to use to make soups, stews, chili, sauces and so much more!
