Instructions
- In a large pot, add the water and simmer the chicken with ½ carrot, ½ celery, onion, black peppercorns and bay leaf for approximately 2 hours; skim the broth to remove the fat.

- Meanwhile, strain the broth into another pot (remove and discard the bay leaf) and place back onto the stove top to simmer.
