Method

  1. Sear & Saute: Heat olive oil in a large stockpot over medium heat; brown the onion, celery, carrots, parsnips, and turnips for 5 minutes.

  2. Simmer Broth: Nestled the whole chicken into the pot, add garlic, herbs, vinegar, water, salt, and pepper, then bring to a gentle boil.

  3. Slow Cook: Reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and simmer for 90 minutes until the chicken is tender and the bone broth turns rich and golden.

  4. Shred & Serve: Transfer the chicken to a board, shred the meat, discard bones, and return the protein-rich chicken back into the gut-friendly vegetable broth.

Chef's Tip

Cooking Hack: Adding apple cider vinegar helps extract essential minerals and collagen from the chicken bones during simmering, yielding a richer broth with maximum gut-health benefits.
