A flavorful homemade chicken stock prepared in a pressure cooker.
This pressure cooker chicken stock recipe is perfect for creating a rich and flavorful base for soups and stews. The use of a variety of chicken parts, especially collagen-rich sections like wings and feet, ensures a gelatin-rich stock. Ideal for use immediately or for freezing up to 6 months, this stock can be the foundation of many meals. Serve it as consommé or in dishes where clarity is essential by using slow depressurization.
Combine all ingredients in a stovetop or electric pressure cooker and cover with cold water. Make sure not to let liquid exceed the cooker's max-fill line; it's okay if a few things poke above the water's surface.
Close cooker and bring to high pressure, then cook at high pressure for 45 minutes.

Allow cooker to depressurize, either by allowing it to cool to room temperature (for the clearest stock) or by using the pressure-release valve on the cooker to rapidly vent steam.

You can use many different chicken parts to make stock. The breast meat produces stock with the best flavor, but the thinnest body; plus, it's expensive.
A better option is to use cheaper, collagen-rich parts like wings, backs, and feet (using feet will produce the most gelatin-rich stock).
Any bone scraps you've been saving, whether raw or cooked, can also go in the pot.
