    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    5 lb Chicken, parts, (backs,
    — necks, carcasses, and
    — giblets), (no livers)
    2 lg Onions, coarsely chopped
    2 md Carrots, peeled, trimmed
    — coarsely chopped
    2 lg Celery, stalks, with leaves,
    — trimmed, coarsely chopped
    2 ea Garlic, cloves, crushed
    1 bn Parsley, stems
    2 ea Thyme, sprigs, OR
    1 pn Thyme, dried
    1 ea Bay leaf
    1/2 ts Salt, coarse
    6 ea Peppercorns

    Preheat your oven to 450 F.

    Roast the chicken bones in a roasting pan in the
    oven for 30 minutes, then add the vegetables and roast
    for 15 minutes more. Transfer everything to a stockpot.

    Deglaze the roasting pan with a little water,
    scraping up the little browned bits, and add them to
    the stockpot.

    Add cold water to cover by about 2 inches and
    slowly bring to a boil, skimming all of the froth from
    the surface as it forms.

    Lower the heat and add all of the remaining
    ingredients except the peppercorns. Simmer,
    uncovered, for 3 hours. Add water as needed to cover
    the ingredients and skim when necessary.

    Add peppercorns for the last fifteen minutes of
    the simmering process.

    Strain the “soup” into a large bowl through a
    colander lined with a double layer of dampened
    cheesecloth. Gently press the solids to extract all
    of the liquid possible.

    Discard the solids and cool the liquid to room
    temperature.

    Refrigerate until chilled and lift off the solid
    fat that forms at the surface. Discard the fats.

    Pour the stock into containers for storage, label
    and date.

    Stock keeps for about 3 days in the refrigerator,
    and up to six months in the freezer.

    Yield: 3 to 4 quarts

    strips and place on a plate near the cooking area.
    Prepare the Chinese cabbage, onion, ginger and garlic
    as indicated and arrange on plate with chicken.

    In a measuring cup or small bowl, combine the water,
    soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar and vinegar; stir to
    dissolve the cornstarch and sugar. Place by meat and
    vegetables.

    Preheat a heavy 10-inch saute pan, non-reactive
    skillet, or wok on high heat for about 1 minute. Add
    oil and tilt pan to coat evenly; add chicken. Cook,
    turning constantly, for 1 minute. Add cabbage, green
    onion, ginger and garlic; continue cooking and
    stirring another minute. Stir in the liquid mixture;
    cook and stir until the sauce is thickened and the
    vegetables are tender-crisp and brightly colored,
    about 30 seconds more.

    Serve over hot cooked rice.

    Makes 1 main course serving of about 390 calories.
