What exactly is chicken bone broth? It’s a broth made from cooking chicken bones, connective tissue, cartilage, and skin in water for an extended time to extract all the goodness from them. What makes it different from standard broth is the amount of time it’s cooked. Luckily with an instant pot, you can greatly reduce the amount of cooking time. Win!!
Bones contain vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other nutrients which makes for a nutrient rich broth.
Some potential health benefits of chicken bone broth:
- protect joints & bones
- fight osteoarthritis
- aids digestion
- reduce inflammation
- heal gut lining
- aids skin health
- aids eye health
- aids sleep
- mood improvement
- aids immune system
- helps with weight loss
- improves brain health
- aids cardiovascular health
- aids blood sugar regulation
You may have seen cartons of “bone broth” in the stores, but trust me when I say it’s not the same. Homemade is hands down the way to go. I like to use the bones left over from a rotisserie chicken and chicken feet. If you live in TX, HEB is pretty good about stocking chicken feet. Not to mention, they have ready available rotisserie chicken to go!
