Let’s talk about the ingredients in our instant pot herbed chicken bone broth!

I made my broth using the carcasses of 2 cooked chicken, along with some of the skin. I love to boil whole chickens and use the meat for a variety of dishes. It’s then easy to put to leftover bones into a plastic bag and toss them in the freezer to use in bone broth. When ready to make the broth, we add water and apple cider vinegar to the bones. The vinegar helps to break down the bones and to extract the nutrients from the bones and marrow. To this we add carrots, celery, garlic, onion, and my secret ingredient, fresh turmeric root. The turmeric root gives our broth additional color, flavor, and nutrients. I sometimes use fresh vegetables. Other times I save up vegetable scraps and freeze them to use in my bone broth. The addition of coarse salt and peppercorns give this broth great seasoning!

What fresh herbs did you use for this bone broth?

For my bone broth, I used fresh dill, rosemary, tarragon, and thyme. These are some of my favorite fresh herbs so I knew they would be an awesome combination. You can use this combination or use your favorite herbs. There are a variety of fresh herbs you can add to your bone broth. Some great options include basil, chives, cilantro, marjoram, oregano, parsley, and sage. I love using fresh herbs for many dishes, when possible. But I also enjoy the ease of using dried herbs for other dishes. You can use dried herbs for your bone broth if you’d like. Although there are some exceptions, the general rule of thumb is to use one-third the amount of dried to fresh. So, in place of using 1 tablespoon of fresh herbs, you’ll want to use 1 teaspoon of dried herbs.
