Yes, you can. I assume you wish to make a chicken broth using leftover chicken? Search the internet for leftover chicken broth, and choose a recipe. Basically, it entails boiling up the carcase, removing the carcass after 30 minutes. Then adding to the pan, chopped mixed vegetables, leftover chicken pieces, herbs, chicken stock, salt and black pepper to taste. I would also add pearl barley that has been soaked in cold water overnight. Simmer gentle to thicken.

Once the chicken is cooked, recooking it may not get much more flavor out of it for a broth.

There are two ways to cook chicken in water plus any other things you wish to put in to add flavor. such as vegetables and seasoning.

You can put chicken into cold water, turn up the heat and cook/boil it until its done. The flavor from the chicken goes into the water making a tasty soup with little or no flavor left in the chicken. The chicken still has nutritional value and you can add flavor by serving it cooked, fried, baked or broiled with other vegetables and seasoning.

The other way is to boil the water and then add the chicken. This will blanch the chicken sealing in the flavor and nutrients. Continues cooking of the chicken will leave the cooked chicken full of its original flavor but the liquid may not have much flavor.

Remember that chicken gizzards do not have a flavor. It takes at least 1 hr. for the chicken broth to make with a real chicken. Gizzards are usually cooked in chicken broth for added flavor

If a recipe calls for chicken stock can you use chicken broth instead?

Yes. The only difference is the way the broth is simmered. When making broth you use the whole chicken whereas stock you use the bone. The only time it would make a difference is when you are using it to degalze a pan. Unlike broth, stock will bind with the dripping to create a sauce.

Can you cook raw chicken in chicken broth and use the chicken broth?

Yes you can but be sure you cook the chicken (either whole or portions) until it's thoroughly cooked and not still partly raw showing pink or red flesh near the bone. Actually cooking a whole chicken by boiling in broth is not a very pleasant result. I presume you mean boiling it? Roasting it in broth seems a bit pointless too. You may as well boil some chicken wings, or drumsticks in water if you just want broth. Roasted chicken in the oven is best done dry and the scrapings of the fat that comes out of it can be used to make a gravy. All the salmonella dangers are removed once the chicken has cooked up to boiling point all the way through so the broth would be usable - but I wouldn't let it cool and drink/eat it cold, it's always best to reheat just to be sure no bacteria are lurking. I hope that's useful. Dartmoor Creeper


Can beef broth substitute chicken broth?

Physically yes. There isn't very much of a chemical difference between the two (i.e. your dish won't explode if you substitute beef for chicken). However, your dish will taste very different, as beef broth is generally heavier and saltier tasting.
