Leftover-Roast-Chicken-Stock

This homemade roast chicken stock is the perfect way to make the most of your Sunday roast leftovers. By simmering the chicken carcasses with aromatic root vegetables, garlic, and fresh herbs, you create a deeply savoury and golden liquid that far surpasses any shop-bought cube. It is an essential, dairy-free kitchen staple that provides a nutritious and collagen-rich base for your favourite home-cooked meals.

Using this stock in soups, stews, or a classic risotto adds a wonderful depth of flavour and a silky mouthfeel. It is incredibly simple to prepare and can be frozen in batches for future use, ensuring you always have a healthy, additive-free foundation ready for a midweek dinner. Simply skim away the fat once cooled for a clear, professional finish.

Ingredients for Leftover-Roast-Chicken-Stock

  • 2 chicken carcasses left over from roast chicken, any herbs in cavities discarded

  • 1 onion, quartered

  • 2 celery ribs, chopped

  • 1 large carrot, chopped

  • 1 head of garlic, halved crosswise

  • Scant 1/4 teaspoons black peppercorns

How to make Leftover-Roast-Chicken-Stock

Bring all ingredients to a boil in an 8-qt stockpot. Reduce heat and simmer, skimming foam occasionally, 2 hours.

Strain stock through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing on and then discarding solids. If you have more than 1450ml , boil to reduce; if less, add water. If using stock right away, skim off and discard fat. If not, chill stock (covered once cool) and discard fat after it solidifies.
