Ingredients:
- 1 quart (4 cups) water
- 2 carrots, sliced
- 2 ribs celery, sliced
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Directions:
- Place all ingredients into a large pot
- Bring to a boil and cover
- Reduce to a slow simmer for about 30 minutes
- When vegetables are soft, remove half of them for other uses
- Pour the remaining veggies and liquid into a blender
- blend on highest speed for one to two minutes
When finished you will have a broth that tastes almost identical to chicken soup broth, but with zero grams of fat and no dead bird.
You could add a few shakes of poultry seasoning for the correct "chicken like" spices if you wish.
Use this for recipes that call for chicken bullion or chicken broth.
